    Depends on what the tip action is too. If it is light cover a Medium would be fine.

    I have several of these rods and you will want to use the med-hvy. This series runs a little lighter then most other rods with the same rating. The med. action is great for small topwaters and very light cranks like a #5 shad rap. I also like the CBR's for jerkbaits and traps. These rods are great for anything with a treble hook.
