Hey guys i am wanting to set up 2 combos for summer striper fishing in the lower potomac river (brackish water), what rod power would be best for fishing 1/2oz to 2oz bucktails. 

I have been on TW looking at the best seller rods and it seems that heavy power rods have the higher lure weight is there a certain action that i should be looking at as well?

so far im looking at the following rods and my price range is in the $100 dollar range. Reel is going to be Lew's speed spool inshore LFS
