I have a 5'6" Berkley Cherrywood UL that I do the bulk of my trout and light river fishing with. It's an pretty inexpensive rod and has done well for me over the years. I've used both 4-6 lb. mono and 4 lb. fluoro with it, and it handles both well.

I like the long rod idea, seems like has potential. Been fishing a 4'6" FENWICK that I've had for prob at least 25 years LOL! Bought it before i got married and still like new. I mostly bait fish on smaller streams so it serves me well but not so good on the bigger streams and rivers. The presentation and casting seem like a plus so might consider a purchasing one in the future.
Thanks for the advice everyone and even though I didn't start the thread it was def a useful one. I knew there was a reason i liked this site!!!!!!

I like the action of G-Loomis rods for trout. Cork handle, strong graphite, good warranty. You get what you pay for.

Thanks to everyone for taking the time to give opinions on what they have found while on the water. Now I got to upgrade the 25 years plus old 5 foot ugly stick...
