+1 on the Redington CT. I have the 5wt and it is sweet and smooth as butter....I can only imagine that the 3wt is the same.

also,

+1 on the Echo classic from a few years ago. This, I do have and won't be purchasing another 3wt for a long long time (unless I can find a Diamondglass). It's a great rod, nice moderate action, and surprising amount of butt strength.
