It always made sense to me to skip numbers in rod weight. I have a 3, a 5, and a 7, for example. (I always was a little bit odd.) One could do equally well with a 2, 4, and 6, though. But if the "universal fly rod" is a 5, then there's little point in also owning a 4 or a 6 because they're just too close in performance. Or at least that's how it seems to me.
