Between hard-water trips it occurred to me i could "use" a new rod . . . for this summer, and I'm rather restricted by a few criteria, but have seen a lot of great advice and opinions on here, so thought I'd float the question:
Looking for a jerkbait/topwater casting rod (to be paired with a Citica for working Pop-R's, Zara's, X-Rap's, Husky-Jerks, etc.)
a)price is a very real factor, looking at about $100
b)gotta be a two piece (I realize the difference, but without a rod locker or bigger tow vehicle, this is the reality)
I have a Clarus 6'6' Med-Fast I really like, but a St Croix Premier 6'6" Med-Fast caught my eye the other day, looked at the Mojo too of similar spec's but criteria b) takes that line out of the running
I might be getting ahead here, but also expect the Compre to enter the discussion at some point, or maybe even a Rapala R-Type?
Any opinions appreciated, gotta tide me over until I get back out on the ice

Thinking ahead, rod opinions wanted
This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.
