x2 i have the 6'8 light medium heavy and use it all the time. One of my favorite rods. The hardest part was finding a reel that felt right on it balance and weight wise. I have a metanium on it now and it feels just right.

Thank you Guys, I thought the Steez is too light and I use mainly the FX68 or the IP68 on the SBS. But will try my Steez on it, to see the difference :D I agree the SBS is a great rod, I use it with chatterbaits, jerkbaits, shallow cranks, even with some 5" grubs and of course my favourite for spinnerbaits.

Thanks for the info guys! I'm having a hard time deciding between the h3, sbs, or maybe an envy. Reel will most likely be a t3 1016, but I may pair with tat ct or sv103

Glx and Dobyns Champion would be two of your option.
