ive been using my medium fast and a medium heavy fast pflueger president casting rods for my cranks, definitely not the ideal set up as those were my first rods i bought while getting into the sport again, ive ventured away and own some dobyns savvy now which are night and day, now too bad for me they dont offer a crank line in the savvy, i cant afford the champions and champion extremes so thats a no go, i got some bass pro gift cards, i got 150 bucks and would like to pick up a couple jerk/rip baits while im at it so i dont have a balance left, i dont want to pay much more then 110 to 120 bucks for one. 2 rods stuck out to me, wright and mcgill rick clunn 7' medium heavy which ive been eye balling since the release, and the shimano compre 7' medium heavy mod fast, i dont care about color, i just want a nice rod thats strong and sensitive enough, its basically down to those 2 and would like to hear feedback on them, but im always open to other options, but has to be available through bass pro thanks guys hoping you guys can help
