Which Rod do I get before the Sales End

I want to try something new dont really need a rod decided on 7'2/7'3 m-mh heavy for 10-17 top waters, small swim jigs, small soft body swim baits, and maybe a little light jig action, I want to try the Omen from 13 fishing or the Phenix M1 or Recon is the phenix worth the extra ching?

Re: Dobyns 702c...what to use with it...

Those of you who have used it what would you think of it as a walleye rod 8-10lb line for snap jigging jig heads with small plastics, also needs really good sensitivity, something i dont think my savvys have enough of for walleye in deep water.

Re: what's everyone's most productive lure?

For bass Senkos, and shaky head gulp worms, Pike power bait split belly shad, although the classic spoon is still amazing, walleyes Reef runners and good old live bait.
