6 1/2 is great for flipping around docks and tight into over hanging cover. If you're gonna punch grass you may want a bit longe rod to get leverage through the grass.

If you go with a heavy action you will put a few more fish in the boat, hooking them better. But, you can get by with a MH rod.

It must good,enough,:FZ1 uses one,for pitching. If I'm casting the jig,I sometimes switch to a 6'8" heavy/fast rod.
