{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: What kind of setup for the Shad run at Fletchers?

Agreed, unless you just want to get another combo anyway.  In that case, you can make a "Colorado argument" that you need a 4, 4.5, 5, and 6 weight rod for rainbow trout and apply it to shad.  

For the days when you're catching shad literally on every cast, I prefer a 7' 6 weight glass rod because a stiff 9' rod will kind of beat you up all day ;).

6wt is fine but having an 8wt can't hurt.  It is a rod you will use.
