rod help....
good morning. i'm having trouble deciding on a new spinning rod for gills (and crappies). my fishing is done by wading shorelines and back bays so i don't want something overly long. i'm not sure whether to go with a light power or ulta lite. length is also a question mark. i probably will go with a st. croix premier series as the avids are not in my budget. i have read some reviews on the daiwa spinmatics and they were somewhat impressive for such an inexpensive rod.
any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.
