    Question Anyone make a 7'6" MEDIUM casting rod?

    Looking to use for some pond/park lake fishing from shore, and want the longer rod to get the baits out there. I know some companies have 7'3" Ms, but wondering if there are longer casting rods in medium action. Nothing too expensive since this will just be for pond fishing, but I do want something with good sensitivity. Thanks in advance.

    Here are a few off TackWarehouse. Cant say how sensitive any of them will be as I never used any of them. Those prices are not after they are in your cart. For example the $149.99 Powell is actually only $119.99 right now.

    I have a Falcon Buccoo that is 7'6" M that I found on clearance a few years ago for around $50. It is a decent rod that I have used primarily for cranking but have decided to try it out for shaky heads next season.

    If you're willing to step up in price a little bit, Phenix makes their Feather in a 7'7" MH that will fish like a medium...Phenix rods always fish lighter for a given rating than other brands. The Feather series is an awesome, awesome lineup of rods for the cost. They legitimately perform like sticks costing two to three times as much. MSRP $159, can be had for $127.20 with TW's Black Friday sale.

    Thanks for the suggestions. After some looking around online, I have narrowed it down to these:

    13 Fishing Omen Green 2: 7’7” Medium Fast, 8-15 pound line, 1/8 to 3/8 oz lure weight. It’s $130, but can get for a little over $100 with the TW sale.

    Falcon HD: 7’6” Medium Moderate. 10-20 pound line, 1/4 to 3/4 oz lures. Can be had as low as $55, but I think it might be slightly too heavy in the ratings for what m looking for. But with the moderate flex, it might be ok.

    Im also taking the Phenix Feather suggestion into consideration, but I’m leaning towards the Omen Green 2. From the affordability standpoint though (remember it’s going to be for pond/local park lakes fishing), the Falcon HD. Anyone have experience with the Omen Green 2 or Falcon HD?
