the entire Dobyns Savvy lineup (except for the 766Flip, but it will be in a couple of weeks) is now available with micro guides, so they will be even lighter and more sensitive than before

For your price range the Dobyns Savvy series is a great choice. At Tackle Warehouse with Pro-Staff discount (10%) you can get it shipped free for appx $153. Just call them and mention Cody Malone and you can get the Pro-Staff discount.
The Dobyns rods are hard to beat and Savvy series is a great rod for the $$.

Talk to Ron at Reel Time Rods. Tell him what all you plan on using the rod for and what all options you want as well as your budget and he'll put together the best setup for the money possible. +1! Ron can put a rod in your hand that fits your budget and is on the same level as much more expensive rods. I love my jig rod from Reel Time, I use it every day. +2 you can have him balance it to your reel as well

of the ones I've tried, it's the Shimano Crucial (only tried the older models though). +1.....Keep in mind I have not owned a Kistler, I have met Trey, extremley nice guy. I havent owned any Gary Loomis. The most sensitive rod I own is an All-Star IM-10 made in Houston. However, you may have a hard time finding one new.
