I have never fished a spey/switch rod, but i want to start. I live in New Hampshire and most of my fishing is done with a 3 or 4 weight. I have an opportunity to get an Orvis helios 2 switch rod, as I broke one of my Orvis rods a couple of weeks back and they are offering me an upgrade. It looks like the smallest switch they offer is a 5 weight and i am wondering if that is just overkill for New England rivers? I don't want to get it if it's just going to sit in my basement. Is a 5 weight practical for fishing in New England? From what I have been reading, Echo makes a good 3 weight, so i might just suck it up and buy that, but was hoping to use my upgrade option with Orvis.
I look forward to your responses and trying to learn from everybody here.
