Just a bit of history from an old guy who lived through the transition. There were far fewer choices of lines then than there are now. Living through the confusion of switching over was thought to likely cause problems but it was an easy transition. along with casting plugs were much bigger than are generally used now. This made it much easier for the fly fisher to find the right combination quickly. When the "new" categorizing was introduced rod manufacturers also started listing the recommended line weight such as 5 or 6 weight for trout and 8 or 9 weight for bass. When the newer system was introduced it was felt the first 30 feet measured by weight would make it much easier to obtain a balanced rod/line system whereas previously a lot of guesswork was needed to find a satisfactorily balanced rod/line combination.

The lines used with it were, using the then only grading system, HCH double taper and GBF weight forward. It may well have been in the store for a long time before I purchased it new but it turned out to be very useful for Bass, Pike, and Muskie. Now it would be considered a strange choice indeed. Back in about 1961 or so I purchased my first fly rod, something that was good back then and cost about $30.00 when that was half a week's wages.
