Looking to buy a medium heavy spinning rod in the 7-7'2 range. $100 range. Small jigs, senkos, etc. Looking for any advice from user's of this type of rod.
Thanks in advance

I would look at a 7' M fast action St Croix Premier or a 7'2" MH Shimano Compre Bass. I had the M Compre, but the tip would not load and recoil enough to get a decent cast. The St Croix does well for jigs up to and including 5/16ths oz. They are rated for more, but I've never gone over 5/16ths. If you're needing longer casts, I hear tell the 7'6" Premier can really sling some jigs.

I use a MH Temple Fork Outfitters spinning rod in 7'00" for all small/medium jigs, Carolina rigs, heavy Texas rigs and anytime I am pitching/flipping in cover. They will cast a mile and have the backbone for a good hook set. $99.00 at BPS or online.

Hope it helps,

Bryan

i would go with the denali jadewood shaky head rod it would be great for that and right at $99

The Shimano rod listed above has great sensitivity in my opinion. However you could save some money and get an Ugly Stik GX2. They last a lifetime but aren't very sensitive. I guess it depends what kind of fisher you are. I never spend more than $50 on a rod because Im not a hardcore tourny fisher. Also try Craigslist. There's tons of whipped husband's selling all of their equipment for cheap. I cleaned out a guys garage a few weeks ago and took a truck load of fishing equipment home. A few collectible antiques and tons of bass equipment. I don't bass fish so I donated it to a church so they can take kids fishing on the Trinity behind their parking lot.
