Hey DH_tubinjoe,
It's kinda a wiseguy answer but I pretty much match the rod and the way I fish to the species and size of fish I expect to catch.
A 12-20lb rated bait rod for chovies ain't gonna work worth squat for a 20-40lb rated rod fishing dines.
I'd like to have a shorter stouter rod with a really flexy first 10 inches for the big guys but...... I like to chunk iron too much.
