I've got a couple of Sage 5 & 7's for 8.5-9' that I built as well as a "big" stick Fenwick HMG 12w for 9' that I built for Halibut (love the backbone/torque that she can pull) - managed to set a IGFA with that one.
The littles I use on the White river for (hopefully) biggens, they Rock !!
Just watch idiots running 9wt.s for kings too often. I have 13 wt Orvis 3 piece 10'6' fast action and a 13 wt. Loop Blue line for the bigger fish here. Use a 1956 octagonal South Bend split bamboo 3 piece 6wt for trout and smaller.

My P/B is a (measured/released) 138 lb Tarpon on the 12 - fight lasted over an hour & a miracle she didn't work through the 12 lb tippet.

I landed a sturgeon in the spring steelie run around 100#'s on 6wt leader. Check out Maxima Ultra Chameleon for superior mono. But that's my best fish story for size. I just fish.
