Ugly Stik SP761 LFT, 7'6" single piece, has a light, whippy action great for whiting but with plenty of beef if needed and good size grips.

Thanks for the feedback....I got a Shimano Ballistix Gold 692 SP from Complete Angler this morning. They have a big sale coming up this Thursday, so it was almost 1/2 price @ $120. It's slightly stiffer than my impact nxf which I really like as well. The Timber Wolf was my favourite, but it was bit too expensive for what I'm using it for.

2. Great rods, dedicated bread and butter bait rods because they're not versatile at all

I've got the nxt 763 and it's a ripper rod. As Cobby said, not versatile at all but excellent whiting/pinky bait rod.
