I think what the others have said above is good advice. What kind of action do you want? medium?...medium fast.?...
fast?
If you have a relaxed style of casting/fishing then a rod with a softer flex(medium action) would be what you are looking for. If you are where I think most people seem to fit would be the medium fast action rods. These rods still let you feel the line load the rod yet have the power to make distant casts with ease and bust through most windy conditions.
If you are an agressive caster, want distance, tighter loops etc then go to the fast action rods.
If you are going to upgrade in a medium fast action, then the TFO professional or Sage Launch will be a good choice and come with lifetime warranties.
Going to Cabelas and taking a medium. medium fast and fast action rod out and feeling the difference will let you know what type of action you prefer and then you need to find the price point you want/ can afford and go from there. Lines make a hugh difference....so save enough money to buy a medium to high end line.
