If you don't get much of a response here go to http://outdoorsbest.zeroforum.com/zeromain?id=1 then post your question on the flyfishing board. You'll probably get a lot responses there...

For what it's worth, my "go to" rod for reds and specks is a 7-wt. I find it plenty of rod for both species. If the wind is up or I'm throwing a large fly or spoon fly, I'm more likely to use an 8-wt.
