I too lean toward a faster tip for lipless baits, being able to snap it out of the grass and brush is vital. I’m convinced that some baits will reach out and hook any cover that they get within a foot of (I’m looking at you, LV500).

When Im in a yak or a small boat I use 1 rod for trebled topwaters, squarebills and lighter traps(3/16-3/8 or .5 oz suspending or slow sinking traps, which is a 7'1 M F Muse.  It does everything well enough especially the lighter traps and 3/8-1/2 square bill, jerkbaits as well.  

A 7'1 M F with FC is ideal for squarebills IMO.  Its got enough give to keep trebles in the fish, but is also crisp enough to get good deflection off of cover.  For topwater twitching baits and JBs a 6'7-6/10 is ideal for working those baits, but 7' is more than serviceable.  I like the longer rod for traps as well, because I'm either yo yoing a trap or very erratic stop and starts.  That slightly longer tip section doesn't have much resistance, so the fish doesn't feel much pressure as I'm starting to lift the bait or tear the bait out of the fish's mouth by accident.
