I used to be odd when I first started flyfishing ie 3 and 5 wts. But now that my go to rod that I use most frequently is a 4 wt and not a 3 wt I'm mostly even. I use a 2 and 4 wt the most with some 6 wt use. For salmon fishing I tend to use 6 wt and 9 wt most recently. I use 8 wt sometimes but currently only have cheapo 8 wts ( usually let the kids use) and my 6 wt handles salmon better. If 6 isn't enough I go with the 9 wt.
I imagine that some of us use primarily odds or evens as there just isn't enough difference with a 1 wt change to make us switch from our favorite rods. I do have 3, 5 and 7 wt rods but the get little action except when my son or visiting relatives use them.
