depends on the fishing you are doing. if you are wading small creeks and streams this is good advice, but if you are fishing from a boat (especially on the montana rivers) then a 9 ft, 5 or 6 wt is about the smallest rod you should look at.
the 9ft is just better for keeping the fly out of your rowers ears and you will need a stout rod to fight the wind.
