Oh Jed.. I bet that Louise is sweet!

Kay... I'll say:
Sage XP 9' #6 weight four piece, then
Loomis Streamdance Metolius 8'6" #4 weight, then
Orvis TLS 9'6" #7 also 4 piece.

Jerry,
I'd like to see more fish slime on the corks.
Re: Name 3 most used rods
This has been an interesting read. Some folks have been fishing for a long time if their rods are any indication
These 3 get fished the most; but, not in 1-2-3 order. They are each favorites for the different places I fish...
Sage VPS 590-4 (shad, trout)
Sage Xi2 790-4 (bass, light salt)
2 handed Aussie overhead surf rod 12'6" x 8 wt (beach, salt)

Joe Frost "Tonga" Split Cane
( Do not know the line weight. Joe Frost was a well known guide in the 1950's and this was a rod made to his design specifically for Taupo (New Zealand) conditions of fairly large fish fished downstream with a fairly large lure. it was considered one of the premium rods in its time. Walker Brampton was located close to Hardy and there was some movement of craftsmen between the two firms).
And I regularly us a Fenwick as well
(this one lives at my holiday home).
Puttin' the fun in dysfunctional.
