I agree with LIKWID. Take the 5 wt. out. I have a 5 wt. rod that I overlined with a Teeny 7 wt. Shooting Head Line (150gr.-175gr.). The set up casts like a dream and I can use it for a long time before I get tired.
I have landed approx. 100 fish so far this year with the 5 wt. So give it a try. The best fish last year on that rod was 32" long.
The main diff. between a 5wt. and a 9wt. is the ability to cast into a stiff wind. The weight rating has little to do with the rods ability to land large fish. I know this because I own a 5,9,and10wt. set up. I consider the conditions and use the appropriate set up. I prefer the 5 during the twilight times before sunrise and after sundown.
