I use these three. The Falcon Cara has more backbone and I like it better for the 6XD's or bigger. The Duckett 7'6" I use for large square bills up to 6XD's. The Duckett 7" I use for smaller cranks and even top waters. It just depends on what you like to throw.

I have the 7'4" KVD. How'd yours break? And are you not wanting to go back with the KVD?

Castaway Skeleton 7' Cranking rod. Great rod for a fair price. Awesome for squarbills and mid depth cranks. I just got one a couple of weeks ago and love it!

Check out Ron Grantham's Reel Time Rods.
He custom builds them and can make you a great rod for a good price.

Duckett 7'11" MH version or St Croix Mojo 7'8" Crankster. I have both of these and both are very good.

Bought two BPS cranking sticks 7 years ago for $50 a piece and have loved them.
