    Default Help which spinning rod to choose

    Ok so here is my delema, I have a brand new shimano Stradic 2500 with 8lb flouro. And Im not sure which rod to choose. The Shimano Cumara 7'2" med. hev. or the Daiwa Fuego 7'med. hev. Im looking to throw whacky rigged senkos, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I would get the 68M. Very easy to manage, light, and super sensitive.

    Why not get a rod designed for the technique? I have a St. Croix Mojo Bass Wacky style rod that is designed for that exact technique. It's about 50% cheaper than the cumara, and comes in an extra-fast action which is quite helpful when fishing slackline techniques like that. Here's a link:

    I really like the action of that rod with a fish on the end. Great for flyine anything plastic wise. Maybe a little short though for shore fishin' but 7 footers and up are hard for me to transport without damage.
