I am fishing the 5/6 weight and am pleased with it. It is 7'6" and is capable of putting out a lot of fly line. If you like glass you will like it. It doesn't have the but of my old Wonderrod but is easier to cast. It doesn't handle the big smallies like my old one but I'm enjoying the fight of every fish a little more.

If you are interested cabelas will let you take the rod out and lawn cast it. I wouldn't have purchased mine without trying it out and I'm glad I did because the lighter rod wouldn't have worked for my kind of fishing. I put that one together and handed it right back as there wasn't much to it.

It's a very nice rod for the price and the case it comes in is just a bonus.
