I would suggest one for another lighter texas rig/jig setup around docks and more open water. The other maybe a backup?

if you like deep cranking you might want to look into getting a longer cranking stick to launch those dd22s out there if you need another excuse to buy more stuff!

Also might want just a medium or medium heavy all purpose rod to throw weightless worms and stuff like that just other baits you have not listed.

Most times, with all else equal, the rod with the smaller guides will be somewhat more sensitive. Again, with all else equal. I don't know what brand or model rods you have so it's hard to say, but with less mass in the guides they will/should transmit vibration better.
