I'm looking at this rod, on sale.  It's an Okuma Dead Eye Pro walleye rod, 6'6" M/fast and I'm wondering if it wouldn't work well as a drop-shop bass rod.  I mean, it's a M/fast rod on a 30t carbon blank so should be good (?).  Are we/the industry getting carried away with species-specific rods?

Yes. I would go for it, if possible handle it next to another similar medium/fast rod and see if you can tell any difference. If anything it could maybe be a touch lighter since most walleye rods are a ML or M and you rarely see a need for a MH. Another thing to do could be compare the lure weight ratings with a rod you like or already own.
