Maybe move this topic to the rod, reel, line forum. I'm sure you'll get plenty of feedback there.

All of those rods are feather light, I'd go Expride for the fit, finish and cork handle.

Expride is what I’m going with I think. So my next question is which techniques would you choose the expride over the zodias, I would imagine you don’t want the expride for all techniques or do you?

What are you planning to do with this rod? What rode models are you looking at? My understanding is shimano carries the same models and blank ratings through both the expride and zodias. Having owned neither the expride is a nicer rod. It should be a little lighter and more sensitive. So, certain techniques do not require the rod to be super light and sensitive. If you aren't interested in spending the extra money for the expride I'm sure the zodias rods used for reaction baits such as topwater, spinners, jerkbaits will be just fine. You'd want to spend the extra on bottom contact type rods.

Jigs, texas rigging and worm rod. Anything that requires you to feel a fish fart - definitely not for treble hook rod.
