Glass:
3wt - Steffen 7'3" and Kenney 8'1"
4wt - Steffen 8' 3/4, sage 7.5', and Kenney 7'9"
5wt - Steffen 8' 5/6
Graphite:
3wt - Winston WT 8.5'
4wt - Sage LL 8.5'
5wt - Sage SLT 8.5'
Bamboo:
Orvis 99 7'

The Graphite rods are my favorites in all line weights because they are more all around rods. On brookie streams I'll take the Steffens in 3 and 3/4 as favorites.
