Hey one piece owners, was curious what line weight you guys use for this rod? I’ve been using a 5WF but seems soggy. So curious to see what others are using!

Mine is the later 1 7/8-oz taper. It gets used on brook trout streams with a DT5. It will cast a DT4 just fine, which might be better for larger water.
