Rod is an 8'6" daiwa apollo gold 1946 graphite, rated 7-8wt. I've never fly fished before but would like to try it. A neighbor gave me this rod and I have no idea what use it might be good for, or if it would be good to even learn on. If someone gave you this rod what would you use it for? I live in puget sound for reference

It would be good for large flies like streamers. I use this size for bass, or A run steelhead. It might be good for coastal cutthroat, I can’t say for sure how hard they fight or how big they get though.
