Upon further review, a rod which might be the one would be a Graywolf build Ben's S Glass 8" 5wt 4 piece. From my review:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I clamped them to the bench and did a basic flex test, hanging a weight off the tip. Also weighed them since the weight I used was a little digital hand scale. Once I got started, I trotted out all my 5-6 wt 8’ rods. It would be much better to do flex profile like Yellowstone does for their reviews, but while I’m a data guy, there is a limit to my geekiness, at least when the rivers aren’t frozen over. Interesting results, softest to stiffest:
Aventik 8’1” 5wt 4 piece 3.8 oz tip deflection 76.5 cm
FF 79 6wt 2 piece 3.3 oz. 75.5 cm
Orvis superfine 8’ 5wt 3 piece 3.2 oz 72 cm
FF 80-4 6wt 4 piece 3.5 oz. 71 cm
FF805 5 wt 2 piece 3.0 oz 70.5 cm
Graywolf Bens 5 wt 4 piece 3.2 oz 67 cm
FF 806 6wt 2 piece 3.5 oz 66 cm
Eagle Claw Featherlite 5/6 wt 2 piece 4.0 oz 58cm
The chart fits my fishing experience well. I don’t like casting heavy stuff with the Aventik or FF 79. I use a 7 wt line for the Eagle Claw. Looks like a 6 wt line would be good on the Graywolf.
I strung it up with an Orvis Hydros Superfine WF 6wt line and went back to the dock. It casts great, never a tailing loop from overloading, shoots a mile with an easy motion, loads up close in fast and accurately.
I like how similar flex tests compared to the FF 806. That rod is on every list as an all-round one rod choice. The Ben's is much lighter and a bit faster profile than the FF 806. So, the rod is packable, light, ought to be versatile, and did I say an immaculate Graywolf build? Got what I want for sure. Got to get some fish on it.
