What is your perfered rod length and wt. for fishing small streams. Other then limited casting areas (trees), is there advantages using a shorter ron on small streams?
I have a 3 wt. 7' diamondglass that is great for light fishign and tight spaces. the fiberglass really is great for a delicate presentation and the slow action lets you load a heavier rig if you use a tension cast.

Thanks for all the feedback! I have a follow up question. From what I have understood most small stream rods are slower action rods. I like a faster action rod. If my assumptions are correct that smaller rods are slower action...and I want a faster action. Then would / could I one line up the rod to give me fast action? Example; 2wt rod with a 3wt.line? At the same time if I one line down give me a slower action? Example; 2wt rod with a 1wt line.
