    That’s pretty much the question right there.

    The 5wt and the 8wt is a good combination.

    Sounds like you are floating lake creek.. Shoot me a PM I’ll shoot you back some info… Anyway for lake creek after king season I’d take a 5 wt and a 7wt at a minimum… You don’t need more than a 7 weight but you want something bigger than a six if you plan on catching salmon at all.

    I have a switch rod (11.5 foot 7 wt) and barely use it, I’d much rather have a 15 foot 10 wt. for the big rivers up here, we’ll see how the rod budget holds up this winter
