On bigger weight and longer rods 10'^ i can see the point but for 4wt and smaller, 9' or shorter all i want is as light as possible combo. Balancing light gear makes no sense to me, i've tried it and it does not do anything for me. Maybe my views will change with more experience, or age
Balancing is everything....and dats da btm line on dis
