The Clearwater 7'9" 5 wt. use to have the same flex rating as the Superfine Far and Fine. (5.5)

The Clearwater now has a flex rating of 6.5. I don't know what that means as far as castability goes. Does it mean the higher flex rating does not bend as deeply into the blank?

The FnF is the best rod I have ever fished for the conditions you discribe.

Congrats on your new rod.
