He didn't mention anything about stripers though so any versatality the rod adds with regard to stripers didn't factor into my recommendation.. Maybe he will be happy with the 8. Or maybe he will be like myself and invest in an 8 weight line only to have it go unused after the first couple times out because he got sick of cranking in the 14-17 inch shad that constitute the vast majority of what you catch.

He asked which of the two rods he currently owns would be the best choice. From a versatility standpoint his 8 is the best choice for covering the widest range of water depths and line grain weights.
My "one" rod choice for years was and is a 7wgt. Now I use 6, 7 and 8 depending on water and weather conditions.
And as far as stripers, the odds of hooking a good one when just targeting shad are slim but he now has the ability to deliberately target stripers.
