Rod recommendation for the Welsh Dee

[blueflyingtonight]

I am a very occasional visitor to the Dee and usually 'make do' with whichever rod from my collection that seems best for the tactics on the day. I am thinking of getting a rod specifically for Czech Nymphing. I am not sure whether to go 10 or 11ft and 3 or 4wt. Can any Dee regulars suggest the most suitable length/weight combination that would be suitable? As it will only get a run out about once a year I am not looking to spend a fortune. Any specific models that find favour?

Thanks in advance.

A bit late, but just seen this. For the Welsh Dee standard kit seems to be 10ft 3wt, for inexpensive I've heard Shakespeare are well thought of.
