Hello,

I have an opportunity to purchase a Dave Cottengim Bamboo Rod. I've done some research and have watched his e-bay rods go flying out the door! I'm buying a 3 weight, as I love light rods, and will be using it to chase some native brookies and stocked rainbows up here in New England.

I do like a little more fully action especially in my light line application. What do you recommend as a length for a 3 weight and why? I have a choice between 6 feet and 6 foot 6. The rivers I primarily fished are fished perfectly fine with a 9 weight. I have a 6'9" TFO finesse 1 weight that I use right now....

Any thoughts from this pool of wisdom is appreciated!
