Going to pick up a spinning rod in the 7 ft range. It will primarily be used to swim 3-4" grubs and finesse swimbaits (3.8 jackyl rhythm wave) on 1/16 and 1/8 oz jigs. I'm undecided on m or ML. Any rod suggestions in the $150-$250 range would be appreciated

6'10" Medium Lite Extra Fast

No experience with any of these rods, but I'd be tempted.

 

Daiwa Rebellion MF

Zolo Maestro

Ikos Shake 7

Plus a couple of Lew's: Pro LFS-X5, Lite HM-85

And maybe even a St. Croix or two.  

 

I've ignored my spinning rods for quite a few years.  Want to get back to using them more often.  Hopefully that won't awaken the Bait Monkey.  Don't need more, but the above all look good. 

I like St. Croix from that list.
