Very nice. What would you recommend reel wise for that rod? Also, what action would you say the rod is.

I would say its a medium fast action....... As far as reels Since its a small stream rod meant for tiny fish any light weight reel would no drag needed in my opinion.... I had paired it up with a J Austin Forbes Avon but the reel diameter was too small It was only 2 inches maybe a Redington Drift would suit it fine.. It only weighs Something like 3.5 ounces if I remember right ... Or maybe a Forbes Avon 2 1/2 inch it weighs a lot less if I remember it is only like 2 1/2 ounces.......

Sorry, I couldn't help myself
It is a beautiful rod, Skip!
