Thanks for the reply!

If I pick 1 up it will be used mainly for jig and worms.

I've never used one, but for those applications, I would go with the 7'. So how are you liking that soron by the way. I wasn't overly impressed with mine at first, but the more I used it the more I fell in love with it. It's definately my favorite reel now.

The Soron is great. It is very smooth and I can feel the torque in every handle turn. The "Superline Spool" does work. I been throwing mainly light cranks for walleye.

Ok so I bought the rod. 6'6" MH. It has a strong backbone but the tip has a nice softness to it. It is very light. I put my Quantum Code baitcaster on it with 30lb Stren Superbraid.

Sorry for late reply. I haven't been on in a while due to illness and other crap going on in my life lol. But I am here now. The store I got it at is a chain of stores here in Ontario, Canada called Le Baron.
