Hello

 

Looking to pick up a versatile casting rod for bank fishing. I will be tossing 5/16-1/2 oz jigs primarily, small swimbaits, some topwater.

 

The 6 8 MH is rated at 3/8 - 1oz where 6 10 M is 1/4-3/4 oz. Little confused they are both under 7' when looking at so many rods lately. Also the Medium being up to 3/4oz.

 

Thoughts or help is appreciated.

    The moment you said, Jigs, I was thinking MH.  I know the medium is probably rated for 3/4, but pitchin 1/2oz Jigs and paddle tails, Is MH territory.

    I would get the MH rod. It will be easier to carry on the bank if you go through brush, and the extra backbone will help if you are fishing around cover that’s out from the shore.
