{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Small Stream rod/reel recommendations

Kevin,
 
My 2 cents - I bought an LL Bean Pocket Water 3wt, 6'6" last year and have used it both in SNP and on Accotink. Really happy with the outfit for small streams plus able to land a 12"+ trout in Accotink. My 3wt setup has quickly become my preferred for local trout.
 
And I second Dan's 'won't toss a five inch fish into the trees behind you on the hookset!' - which may or may not have happended with my 5wt!

TPFRs,

I am looking at adding another arrow to my quiver, as I want to try some of the fantastic small stream fishing (SNP) opportunities in our area.  I am leaning toward a 3wt 7'6 orvis finetouch, after doing a bit of online research. I already have two 5wts (8'6 and 9').

Thoughts, recommendations?

Much appreciated
