Havent used it yet, but plan to use the 6 wgt for trout, bass, and shad /schoolies in the salt. It has a fighting butt and corrosion resistant guides and reel seat. Originally I wanted a trout rod, since my only fly fishing is the salt. But then I thought why not get something to do both? So I pulled the rtigger and got the last one at the shop.

What do you think of throwing shad darts with fly rod?
I do it all the time for American Shad. Unfortunately there's no fly that can compete with a quality shad dart when it comes to American shad...
