HM85 blank
I'm not too knowledgeable about blanks but I do know that Lew's calls their Custom Speed Stick Lite an HM85 Blank.

What should my next rod and reel combo be??
7.3 so you can slow it down some with the spinnerbaits and lipless while still having the advantage of a high speed reel for jigs and senkos

Bladed Vibrating Jig : Line Recommendation ?
14-17lb FC or throw it with straight braid if fishing stained water.

Pitching Rod Length
I use a 7'4 Hvy fast Bass X, length will help with longer pitches

Anyone like Powell Rods?
I have the MH XF 7ft model, it is a great rod and is up there with all the competition in the price range. Also, it is an amazing looking rod.

Duckett's "Parabolic" action?
Micro Magic Pro 7ft Medium Parabolic action. It's listed under crankbait rods so i'm assuming moderate to mod fast

Fishing small crankbaits with a big rod?
I should've been more clear, I don't want it to mainly use small cranks I just wanted to know if the rod could still load up if I did use a smaller crank. I was thinking that maybe the mod fast action would allow for more bend and whip in casts which would load the blank and still cast it a good distance. At this point, I'm just gonna have to go try it out. Thanks for your guys input.

Hello from Kansas City, MO
Hey guys, 19 year old tournament angler living in Kansas City, MO when not attending my university. I love catching fish of all kinds but who doesn't love bass fishing. Obviously we all do. I love the amount of knowledge that can be obtained through the forums! I've been lurking for a while but it's nice to finally be able to post. Cheers! Also, if you're a local hit me up! Always enjoy fishing with new people.

Fishing small crankbaits with a big rod?
Recently I was able to come across Lew's Custom Speed Stick Magnum Crankbait rod for $80. However, I was needing a rod that was able to handle 3/8oz cranks well and this rod is rated at 1/2oz to 1n3/8oz. It is a 7'6 Med-Heavy Mod. Fast Will this rod still perform well with smaller cranks? I was hoping for this rod to be an all around CB rod since my arsenal isn't too large. Also, this is my first post after lurking the forums for a while now. Cheers!
