Please could you explain how you have derived the ERN non-linearity? Perhaps if I had this I can work around the different ERN I have for the various length rods that I use a #3 on.
Thanks in advance

PS Apologies, just noticed I can reverse engineer it out of the Rosetta Stone :p
Take the weight required to deflect the rod 1/3 of it's length.
Divide that weight by 11
The result is the weight of 30' fly line for that rod.
Why 11 g's ?? Sounds excessive for a 30' cast
The lack of linearity is the fly line rating.
Wait until you try out the Bill's proposed 30 weight fly line.
You'd really have to be a "troll" to accelerate that one at 11 g's
93 grams at 30'. Wouldn't want to offend the guy who could
