Looking for a different kind of spinning rod

[PatrickKnight]

I am in the market for a medium power mod-fast action spinning rod at least 7 foot long. I am currently looking at the Lews Custom Speed Stick tube rod, which is a 7'2" medium power mod-fast rod. I have not really had much success in finding other models that meet these requirements so any others that I can compare would be great. Price needs to be under $160.

Try looking at spinning rods designed for trout fishing, standard action for them.

I use st croix and dobyns rods.  The dobyns fast seems more moderate than the st croix fasts

Do you have the Fury or Sierra 703 by chance?

You should also look at what some companies call popping rods.

Bingo! You need a good, old-fashion popping rod. My favorite is the old school All Star 7' PRM-S for medium power. Falcon makes a great popping rod nowadays.
