[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Thudpucker, when flexing the rod, you basically are looking for where it flexes. From what you said, I sounds like you have a med to med/fast action. If the whole thing flexes right down to the butt, that is a full flex. [/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]You should be fine going one heavier (5wt) but like I said think II. and just count down.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Also, take longer on your casts and even try doing it to the side slightly. The line is going to be more sluggish, so bigger loops in your cast.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Type II is noticeable, but really not that hard to cast.[/size][/black][/font]
