I have a Trevala 6'6 med action and would defiantly go with the heavy action for your intended use. Nice rod, but the med action is too soft IMO.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day ...
show him where to fish and ... you'll be sorry

Being basically a cheap (*&&( I took RIRockhound's advice when I bought my first CC and bought 2 Penn Slammers 5' 6". I put Abu Big Game reels on them and use them for livelining Pogies. $50 each for the Rods at Bennys in RI. Still using them after 4 years and I have caught hundereds of fish up to 40#. Cannot be beat for the price.

No boat, back in the suds.
