As I posted earlier, I now own a 5' 9" glass rod. I'm wondering what to use as a leader for it and seek advice from you experts.

I normally use Rio leaders in 7' or 9' lengths. I'm worrying that even the 7' leaders will be too long to use in the small stream dry fly situations where I intend to use this rod.

Good advice, most gratefully accepted. But please do not tell me to create my own furled leader as that is beyond me.

Many thanks!@
