Only thing I would suggest that hasnt been touched on is before you buy any set, have a play with the rod and see how it feels. Sometimes you pick up a rod and you can feel straight away if you're going to like it or not.
For general purpose you'll probably be looking at a medium fast action 9ft 5 or 6 weight for the Wellington region.
Personally I like fast action rods as the majority of my fishing is nymphing or wet lining with large streamers so want a bit of backbone to be able to punch into the wind.
