Need opinions on relatively decent priced umbrella rig rods if there is such a thing. Some of the prices of rods is way ridiculous. The a - rigs will be approximately 1 oz most of the time lighter.

Any rods in the 7' 6" that will throw A-rigs and when not throwing A rigs be used for other things.

Needs to be a heavy rod, but also needs parabolic flex at the end for casting distance, doesn't have to be expensive, your not looking for a feel, as they smash it. For several years I have used a Diawa - casting rod TDT701MHXB and it's really cheap, I bought one 8 years ago so not sure if they still make it, but the Diawa AIRX731MHFB is very similar $55.00

Purchased the Dobyns FR 765FLIP for the lighter A-Rigs Hope it works for the A-rigs and lighter swimbaits up to an oz or so. Tried to keep from getting to rod specific and it says secondary - umbrella rigs. If not have a good pitchin, flippin and Carolina rig rod. Good excuse to buy another. lol Thanks for all the help.
