Leave out the chum, and it's pretty easy to recommend a 5 weight, maybe even a 4.  The chums are much bigger, and a lot more powerful.  Ideal for chums is probably an 8 +/-.  If forced to compromise and carry one rod, you have to decide whether to lose fun on the smaller fish with a big rod, or limit your performance on the big fish with a smaller rod.  I'd probably take a 7 if that's all I could carry, but my heart wouldn't be in it.  A 5 and an 8 packed in the same tube would still be compact for travel and a whole lot more fun.
