Thanks for the replies. I think I'll go with the 4wt to load it better on the short casts I plan on using it for. A friend who fishes the waters I'm planning on using it on brought up a good point that I might want to cut back on the rear portion of the flyline to put some "insurance" backing on rather than a whole flyline on a 6' rod that will never cast it all (by me anyway). That makes the WF a no brainer over the DT.... Sometimes those creeks produce a big feisty salter brookie and I don't want to "run out of string".
