ChrisWi Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 Looking at getting a new walleye rod, want to get another Powell, this would double as my drop shot rod, I'm pretty set on another Inferno, all I can afford right now, looking at the 7 foot Medium Light and 6' 10" Light. Which would be better? Also open to other suggestions! Quote
OntarioFishingGuy Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 You may want to look into St. Croix's 'Eyecon' series. I believe they are priced the same as the Powell Inferno, and offer more models. I prefer a shorter rod for vertical jigging, but a long rod for dropshotting. If I had to choose one rod to do both, it would be a 7' ML/F. Also, take a look at a Fenwick, they are great rods too.

I'm fishing with a Mojo bass right now. Same blank as the eyecon, and I hate Fenwicks. I've had two and both broke, cheap guides and heavy. I think the 7' ML is a better choice, I'm just worried it wont balance well with my current reel. Quote
