If i could only have one rod it would have to be a 6wt., because it is not to light but at the same time is not to heavy. It is also easy to find lines for.

trout, bass, sea bass i dont care its fishing. <><
If you could have only one fly rod what would it be ??

Will work for trout, bass and can still tame a decent sized salt water fish in the wind.
I'm happy we don't have to make that decision.
Is this a wonderful country or what?
I love my TFO 9' 6WT in the 4 piece. Casts like a cannon and is light to handle.

If I could only have one rod it would be my Sage 691-4 XP. It does everything - trout, panfish, bass, steelhead, smaller salmon, light saltwater, you name it. A bit heavy for many trout situations but hey we're talking about one rod for everything, so this has to be it for me.
ktokj,
I fished my 691xp yesterday for the first time. It was windier than heck but I still was able to fire that rod with ease! I was still water fishing and had a ball (although I didn't catch anything).
So, to answer the actual question, I would probably go with my 586 SP "el sueno." This could change in time as I get more involved with still water. But for the fishing I've done in the last 4 years, this is what would be the best.
But as Buzz says, thank goodness we don't have to make that decision

5 wt. I have a Scott 6 wt. rod that I have yet to fish, so my vote is the 5 wt.
