Your original post indicated most activity will be at stocked trout ponds, so a 5wt rod will fit the bill. If you're on the water (float tube, pontoon, punt, whatever) a 10ft length will be advantageous, so look at the Orvis Clearwater. Then a floating line and a Type 3 sinking line will suffice.

Flies: chironomids in spring, leeches all season, backswimmers/boatmen in the fall.
