Which rod to choose for fly fishing?

Depending on the fish you wish to catch, the choice of technique and therefore rod will vary. 

Dry fly trout fishing in rivers 

Depending on the size of the waterway, length will vary from 6' to 10' for line weights ranging from #3 to #6. A versatile starting point is a 9' rod with a #4/5 line.

Trout / grayling nymphing in rivers

Depending on the size of the waterway, length will vary from 10' to 11' for line weights ranging from #2 to #4 or straight nylon. A good starting point would be a 10'6 rod with a #2/3 line for small waterways and a 10'9 with a #3/4 line for medium to large waterways. 

Trout and other species in reservoirs and lakes

Length will vary from 9'6 to 10' for line weights ranging from #6 to #8. A versatile starting point is a 10' rod with a #7 line.

Freshwater and sea predators

Length will be around 9' for line weights ranging from #6/7 up to #15 depending on the species. A versatile starting point is a 9' rod with a #8/9 line for bass, #10 for pike, #12 and above for tuna or exotic fishing.
