What are you using for flies?  Number 2 stones or number 20 Baetis nymphs?  
If it is  heavy nymphing I would look to something like an Orvis 8 1/2 7/8 
weight beast (I use the original and have not made one because I am not set up to 
impregnate) or if it is little fly nymphing I would look to any dry fly rod 
you like.  Something in the middle and I would make a Summers 856 or one of the 
late versions of them Paul Young Para 15.
