I own both the #3 … I own both the #3 and #5 and 80% of the time I reach for the #3. The sensitivity of strike detection while nymphing is what makes it desirable. The #3 handles trout up to 20 inches in fast moving water without any trouble for me. I have had only two fish – out of maybe 150 – that bent it over to the point that it made it difficult to get them to the net. It isn’t the acrobatic ones… it’s those lunkers that keep their nose glued to the bottom and require extra torque to get to the surface.
oh you bet they … oh you bet they will…have you catch a 20 pounder rainbow??? they fight like a salmon…remember i said when you catch something “20lbs” and plus…it can easily put 10lbs on it if your fishing in a big river system…besides, its always best to have it overpower than underpower, you never know what your going to catch…
what!!! your never … what!!! your never going to catch a trout that puts any more than 6 pounds on it. just because the fish weighs 10 pounds doesnt mean that it puts ten pounds on the rod
weak sauce…i seen … weak sauce…i seen fly rods that breaks at 30lbs…and 50lbs…rather get those, never know when a monster comes in…or fishing for trout, never knows when you catch something 20lbs+
