Plan to use the 1000 for panfish and possibly light bass

2500 more for larger fish i.e. Bass, and similar.

Will likely use 6lb mono/flouro and/or 8 or 10lb braid on the 1000

The 2500 will either run 8 mono/fouro and/or around 20lb braid.

Thoughts are something around 6 - 6'8 or so in Light or possibly ML with fast tip on the 1000, and more likely ML if not Medium power fast tip for the 2500.  Figure the bass need a harder hook set.  Never caught Walleye's but that may be in future plans, so not sure how hard a hook set is needed for them.  

Thoughts/feedback by experienced Spin fisherman appreciated.  Any recs on rods, and/or line appreciated.  Looking at Avid and Premier line if it matters.  Want lightweight and sensitive....as one might imagine which is why I am looking at St. Croix.

Thanks in advance.

My primary ned rod is an AVS66MLF.  Good sensitivity, balances good with 2500 Stradic.  You could probably find comparable for less money.

Do tell how you use it, what type of fish, etc.  What line do you use?  

Comparable - any suggestions?  I have handled many spinning rods, and find many lacking, though not a broad cross section of St. Croix at my local BPS.

Thanks.

Thanks, if you have used any let me know which models, much appreciated.  That 6 foot looks well suited.
