I get Cabelas gifts cards through my work as a reward and I have accumulated quite a few.
You need an 8 wt and a 4 wt and that can be done for relatively little money at cabelas.. good luck
when it comes to casting a rod is ALWAYS the heavier weight, any rod will cast 1-2 line weights up or down, When a person says a 7 wt is an all around good rod ( ive caught tons of winter steel on one ) its important to figure what brand action and length that rod is, for instance a 7 wt gloomis rod compared to a lami are 2 different creatures, a 7'6 glass rod will catch everything and always feel fun until you get that 14 lb coho on it, but also an action and build in a graphite fast action 7 wt is not really gonna be fun with much less than a pounder on.
