    I have a tfo tactical 6’11” medium light fast spinning rod, it throws nekos and wackys pretty well

    I'd go with an Abu Garcia Villain 2.0 They retail for $200 but can be had online for $140. I ordered mine from Gnarly Gorilla.com and paid $135 with free shipping. For the Neko I'd probably go with the 7' ML extra fast or the 6'10" ML fast. Both would do well as a drop shot or Ned Rig rod also.

    The Daiwa Tatula Elite 701MLFS is a great option. With the "BBC10" discount code from The Tackle Trap and a certificate for a HUK Shirt, at $162 shipped, it's a great all around finesse spinning rod that handles the Neko Rig very nicely.
