I generally fish with a 9',6 wt. Sage 2-piece rod fitted with an Abel TR-3 reel. It is a pleasure to use, and I have caught many browns with it. However, I also have an Orvis Trident TLS 8'6", 5 wt. rod that is excellent. This rod is listed new at Orvis for $315. It was about half the price of the Sage, and performs very well. Mine is fitted with the Battenkill Original 5/6 disc drag reel, and I have used it for small browns in Colorado streams as well as bigger fish in Montana. This reel lists for $98. It is a good overall combination.
