Nick, I have a 10 foot 5 wt Greys streamflex if you are interested.

I would be interested! however all my lines are rated 6/7wt, so a 5wt is too light. But thanks for letting me know!

A mate of mine has the 6wt but 9ft to sell.

I need the 10ft for distance. 9ft isnt really an ideal length for boat use either. But thank you for letting me know!

If you are talking about distance, as in distance casting, a 9 foot might be better, but for boat work, a la, competitions, yes, a 10 foot is a better rod. Also, with the very long leader you will use, the more tippy action of the 10 foot rod, in my opinion, might help for better line and leader control, so you are definatly on the right track.
The 10 foot Greys Streamflex is a medium action rod, and might be nice for the boat based work you are going to have to do in the nationals.
Where do you live, if we can get it to you, You are free to try it out? I might have a matched line as well if you want, will have to check.

I am with my family in Dubai at the moment. But the reason why im wanting the 6wt is because all my lines are all 6/7wt, and that will be a bit too much for a 5wt to handle, as i am fishing a Di5 or Di3 from the boat most of the time. But thanks again for the consideration!
