Line Weight and Length
A fly rod is matched to a line weight, with light ratings for small rivers and heavier ratings for big stillwaters, wind and saltwater species. A 9ft rod rated for a 5 or 6 weight line covers most UK trout fishing.
Pieces and Travel
Three and four piece rods pack down short for travel and for walking the bank. A reel of the same line rating balances the outfit in the hand.
