If you can get a Dancraft 5 Rivers for under 100 get it!
My 8'6-6wt has been my goto rod for four years now.
Craft also had some good deals on Forecast.
I made a 7wt 9'. Very nice. Versatile (I can no longer spell....)
I can push large heavy streamers of little drys on that one. Just the right amount of flex.
