Absolutely, but if you think about it, you are basically roll casting the line back upstream. Peel line out, shake the tip of your rod and let it drift, or stand in the middle of the creek, cast up stream, let it drift back to you and flick (roll cast) it back up stream.
I also agree, sometimes I prefer the 7' and other times my 10' (dabbing).
Lately it has been my 8 1/2' JWF (5 wt), but also my 7' (4 wt) glass.
I have even taken my 7' 2 wt LL, all work just fine.
BUT! If I had only ONE rod, it would be a 5 weight in a 8 1/2' length.
That would cover the creeks and stream (Uinta's) The Weber and Provo River's and stillwaters.
Here is one of the creek I fish.
