I like the bigger rods to deal with the wind but a good friend fished for a lot of carp and shad up here and now that's he's moved out of the area, specks and puppy drum down in Galveston Bay with an 8'6" 4wt (the $130 Lefty Kreh Signature model, no less).
-- For reels, unless I'm fishing salt or a two-hander, I use a 60 year old click-and-pawl Cortland Rimfly that I found in my great grandfather's basement many years ago. There aren't too many freshwater fish that truly necessitate more drag than your palm can provide and nothing sounds quite as good as a fish pulling drag off a click-and-pawl. Plus, click and pawl is bomb-proof.
