Yep, I have had that same rod for about 40 years. It was one of the first fly rod I purchased from K-mart many years ago. I have caught a lot of trout on it. Back then, a 7 wt rod was considered as an "all around" rod and the normal size for trout. I have slowly, over the last 40 some odd years gone to lighter and lighter rods, currently fishing 4 wt glass and bamboo mostly. However, I have used this rod for bass a lot and it does a good job. I used a DT7 Scientific Anglers line on it and was pleased with the performance.
