I want a ML spinning rod with a little flex. Does anyone have the Tatula Elite 7' rod? It says fast action and wondering if it feels a little stiff. Going to be throwing 1/4 oz cranks, small paddle tails, and dropshotting. 

The 7'1 ML Tatula is a GREAT rod, especially at it's price point ($160 retail). 

 

I will suggest the expride 7' light.

Either A or B version would be good.

I have both but like the handle on the A better.

On sale!

I really liked the feel of the Curado.

I've read that the Pyscho Sticks run on the stiff side. I'll look into the Expride, a couple other rods that have caught my eye are the Levante and Zodias lines.

Don't mix up power and action.  The ML is a description of power, and fast action is a description of action, where the rod initially bends when loaded.  A fast action rod can have any power, from ultra light to heavy and beyond.

 

I expect a ML (medium light) power is about what you are after.

I haven't fished one, but on paper the psycho stick has the goods.  Fuji K/SIC's and a 46T blank are hard to beat.

I have never liked the location of the hook keeper where this rod has it.  Puts the lure very near the hands, and when fishing the keeper contacts the hands at times.  I've never found a better location than just in front of the front grip at 180 degrees.

 

It would not be difficult to put one up front and remove the rear one if one wanted.  I suggest  trying it as is if you buy it  You may like the location.
