Looking to throw TRD’s, small tubes, small worms, basically small bottom contact baits.
Thank you

This
Daiwa Steez SVF AGS Spinning Rod 7' Med Lt Xfast

It is this highest dollar rod I own, and maybe worth it.

a 6'9 ML rod that is out of production. ML rods have the specs I want for light spinning. I go to a Light powered rod only when fishing a crappie jig

Hedgehog Evoluzion paired with a Certate 1003, braid and fluoro leader. I bought this rig specifically for Ned rigs and dropshot. The stinger tip is a pleasure to fish with.

How is that LT so far? I really wish they had offered the Ballistic LT1000 in a 6 speed ratio. Looks good, just a shortage of reviews for now.

I went and checked. appears mine a Fenwich ET Smallmouth 6'9 ML- F as well. Has lower weight limit of 1/6th oz and weights in at about 3.4oz on my scale. I sold off a far more expensive rod when I happened along this rod. Could well be that one of the 2 prior gentleman put me onto this rod. Certainly someone did because it is the only Fenwich rod I've ever held. I recollect thinking a 1/16oz lower lure rating was what I wanted in a finesse spinning bass rod; though I have no idea how I arrived at that.
