Personally i want a rod that has a lite enough tip to detect bites, soft enough not to pull hooks and has enough backbone to really pull if you have to. That rod for me is a calstar 800xl or xlc.
Grafighters are the shit!
Greg uses gloomis rods not sure what number but they are very good rods too. His rods are alot lighter than mine, and it works out great for him as we all know...
Treat youself to some good gear. You are obviously going to get alot of use out of it, so its going to be worth it.
