Fat Nancy's has a 9' light action rod we use for Spring Brown Trout. I believe it's a Riverside or Steamside brand? They are a lot of fun with the Chinook Divers 1/2 size for Brown Trout. If I wasn't fishing green clients I'd probably use that rod more for my Chinook Divers. Ask for Dave Falato if you call over there. Tell him I sent ya. He'll know what rod I'm talking about.
