How does that zillion feel in hand?  I'm in the market for a 7'6"-7'11" 1/4-3/4oz crankbait rod and that's one I've considered.  

It's solid but I'm not sure it's worth the $210 I got it for on Ebay which is $50 less than retail. I need to fish with it to decide. Does the Dobyns Champion line have something that size that would work for you?

Also on the St Croix website you could pick up a Rage casting rod for $89 in either 7'6" or 7'8" both MH but one is moderate and one is moderate fast. I don't know about that handle though.

What about just the Tatula rod too? From the reviews I read after I bought the Zillion it had me questioning if the extra was worth it. Tatula gets solid reviews and can be had for around  $100 on sale.

The baitmonkey gets us all at one point or another, nothing to be ashamed of! Congrats on the rods! And nice smallies too dude!

How's the Fury 705? I thought about it for a general purpose, maybe even a squarebill rod.... I love my Fury 795, great rod!!!

I haven't thrown it yet but I like the feel of it for $100. From what I read, it seems like people rate the Fury better than or equal to the Savvy.
