Which is better for an all-around finesse rod, medium or medium-light?
If it’s a Dobyns I’d go Med. The ML is real whippy and their rods IMO are over rated so a Med is like a ML elsewhere

Which Reel on TW Black Friday Sale?
Sometimes EBay has a 20% off sale and retailers also have the reel on sale, so it’s off the sale price. Keep an eye out on the Bass Resource Fishing Tackle forum and there is a Sale Thread that will usually tell about good sales

Moderate baitcaster for Whopper Plopper?
I have a chance to get a 7’ Med Moderate Falcon Mansfield Special baitcaster rated 1/4-1/2 I know Moderate action is usually for Crankbaits but would it work for a Whopper Plopper 90 since treble hooks are used?

casting ultra light lures
Very, very nice rod for really small panfish baits. I have one with a Tatula LT 1000 and 6# Silver Thread AN40 coploymer line, but if you hook into a decent bass, have your drag set really loose. Trust me, it bends so far it scares me that it will snap.

Weightless Plastic Casting Rod
I’d call first to see what they have. Or you can go to their website and look at the rods you are interested in and see if they are in stock at your store. You can save a lot of time and gas.

Line for finesse fishing
I had bad line twist problems with straight Fluoro I now use 10# Power Pro to a 8# Seagur Invizix Leader or straight coploymer 6# Silver Thread AN40 with very few problems
-
Trilene XT
As an alternative to Trilene look at Silver Thread AN40 It’s a copolymer that I use on spinning reels with virtually no wind twist. I use 6#
