Talking Favourite stillwater rod?

I more or less gave up stillwater angling about a month ago however I spotted the calendar and had a sudden realization that I'd have to make one or two stillwater trips over the winter to prevent me from cracking.

Anyway, what is everybody's favourite rod for stillwater trout fishing (from the bank and/or boat)? Mine's a 9ft #6...
