e day, I accidentally put on the wrong reel which had some 4wt power taper line (a little heavier than a true 4wt line). A few casts and I was like whoa what happened. I couldn't believe how much the rod had come alive. Since then I can't put it down. It's a spicy little rod that punches way above its weight class, it's Bruce Lee. But most of all it's just FUN. I thought I'd notice the 8'6" vs 9' length, and I have, but not as a limitation but a strength -- this short, stout rod, combined with the heavier line just works magically. Now I look for excuses to see what it can do. Chubby/droppers, streamers/buggers, nymph rigs with nz indicators...I've maybe sized down just a touch from what I'd normally throw with a 4-5wt but not by much and what I get in return is so much more fun to toss and fish. Now I've got a couple high end 9ft 4wt rods sitting in the garage wondering why they get no love. Downside is fish fighting. Large fish feel really large!! You don't have a powerful butt section to put the wood on a fish, but easy to adapt, just use a bit more finesse and be thankful for the extra tippet protection the flex will give ya :) Read LessRead less about Never thought I'd be saying my
