Thanks everyone for the great advice and tips. I have gone with the Cabelas L-tech! This rod is incredible. I cast it side by side with the Sage Launch. It was a difficult decision, and both have their strengths. The Sage loaded line a little better - but the L-tech is so light, delicate, and is perfect for finesse fishing. I think I am going to save up for a Launch in a 5 or 6 weight size. It would be PERFECT for me in that size. I got to feel an Albright GP (a step lower than the A-5 I was thinking of getting), and wasn't too terribly impressed by it. Even if the A-5 was awesome, I am not sure it could beat the L-tech. AWESOME ROD! Can't wait to break it in tomorrow. I am like a little kid at Christmas time! [
