Default What would you do here???

Sometime next week I plan on buying a St. Croix Premier Spinning, 7', medium power, fast-action, for only $100 at our local tackle store. After taxes, this will be a better deal than buying from the maker due to shipping, handling, etc...

That's not the hard part.... I plan on using this rod for most, if not all of my walleye fishing tactics, but I also think it would be a killer Shakey Head Rod. What would you do in this situation?? Would you:
  • Use my already-owned St. Croix Wild River Spinning, 7'6'', medium-lite, fast-action, for a walleye rod and use my soon-to-be rod for Drop-Shot's/Shakey Heads? or...
  • Use my already-owned rod for a Drop-Shot/Shakey Head Rod and use my new one for walleye fishing? or...
  • Use my already-owned rod for Drop-Shot's, use my soon-to-be rod for Shakey Heads and for walleye fishing, then use them both when walleye or bass fishing. (Example: I'm walleye fishing; use my already-owned rod for jigs and my soon-to-be rod for cranks --- I'm bass fishing; use my already-owned rod for a Drop-Shot Rod and my soon-to-be rod for Shakey Heads. Get it? Use them both when targeting certain species...)
What would you do in this situation? Also, what reel would you choose, (spinning), based on your choice?

Thanks in advance,

-Buzz
