I'm getting a sealine 20 this Sunday thanks to a board member giving me the hookup of the century

. Just want to get some opinions on what style rod ypu would pair it with for halibut and rockfish. There are alot of preferences when it comes to halibut rods. I recently switched from a medium action rod with alot of bend and went with a stiffer Fenwick on the advice of another guy but its not really working for me. I've lost a few good ones due to head shakes that I feel would have been fine if I had a little more flex to absorb it. Any is appreciated.
