[QUOTE="Captain Ahab, post: 173708, member: 10"] Given what your intended use is I do not suggest any of those rods. They are all crankbait rods which means they have a fairly soft action - great for throwing big cranks but not so great for spinnerbaits and horrible for topwater. Take a look at a G-Loomis (GLX) 6'9 Spinnerbait Rod SBR813 GLX or a 7' St. Croix Legend Tournament Bass Casting Rod LTBC70MF I suggest you stay in the Med. to Med. Heavy power range and get a fast to extra fast action. This will allow you versatility. You can also work your crank baits a little slower but you cannot take a soft tip rod and make it work other baits very well. [/QUOTE]
