Looking at getting a new walleye rod, want to get another Powell, this would double as my drop shot rod, I'm pretty set on another Inferno, all I can afford right now, looking at the 7 foot Medium Light and 6' 10" Light. Which would be better? Also open to other suggestions!

You may want to look into St. Croix's 'Eyecon' series. I believe they are priced the same as the Powell Inferno, and offer more models. I prefer a shorter rod for vertical jigging, but a long rod for dropshotting. If I had to choose one rod to do both, it would be a 7' ML/F. Also, take a look at a Fenwick, they are great rods too.

I'm fishing with a Mojo bass right now. Same blank as the eyecon, and I hate Fenwicks. I've had two and both broke, cheap guides and heavy. I think the 7' ML is a better choice, I'm just worried it wont balance well with my current reel.

You probably want a 6'6-6'9 MLXF or MLF.
