9-wt line on an 8-wt rod.
#3
First off, many of the less expensive rods are two maybe even three sizes. You see all the time 7/8.
I would try casting that 8 wt line on the six first...it could be the guide placement on the 8 wt. Sorry but my Eagle Claw has a problem casting Shark Skin!

Not sure what you payed for the Peach (I have never been a Peach fan, but another story) But I did just order this stuff for my Bass and Carp fishing on an 8 wt.

The like is the most important feature of fly fishing, and it can make or break a good cast.
