Default Opinions wanted . . .

Last year I purchased my first baitcaster. By the end of the season, I pretty much got the hang of it. However, I am not happy with the rod that I purchased (a BPS Pro Qualifier). When I purchased my baitcasting rod, I thought I would use it for stickbaits. Turns out, I couldn't get a good hookset with the baitcaster.

Anyway, my latest revelation is that perhaps a baitcaster would be good for throwing crankbaits. I am happy with my reel (a Shimano Chronarch) but need some advice/recommendations as to what rod would work well for throwin' cranks. Any suggestions regarding brands, size (6'6 versus 7'), and Medium versus Medium/Heavy? Anyone fond of the BPS Crankin' Stick? Or do I need to drop some cash and by a Loomis?
