Rod recommendations

MississippiBoy · 05-12-09, 12:25 PM

I'm looking forward to the trip this weekend, so I decided I would celebrate by buying myself a new baitcasting outfit. I need to differentiate a little bit in my equipment, so I'm looking for opinions on what you think I ought to get. I'm not really looking for brand recommendations, but I do want your thoughts as far as rod action, length, reel speed, etc.

I have 4 baitcaster setups now, and a spinning rig. The spinning rig is 7', medium, 6.3:1 (I think) gear ratio. Baitcasters are all MH; 2 are 6'6", one is 7', one is 6'. All of the reels are somewhere around 6.3:1 ratio.

One hole I see in my arsenal is a cranking rig, although one of the 6'6" baitcasters does ok in this. What are your thoughts and opinions?Thanks...
