How heavy of line and head are you going to use? There are a few different models I would recommend but I want to make sure I suggest the best one for you.

dan I'm thinking about 10lb line on the 2500, thats why I got the 2500 instead of 1000 ( oh wait I got a 1000 too :oops: ) this rod will also be used for shakey heads

The Crucial CRS70ML or CRS70M if you like a stronger rod. I like the ML for lighter dart heads with smaller worms. The CRS70M will work with heavier dart heads and shakey heads too.

If you are looking at the Cumara I suggest the CUS68M. I have used the drop shot version for dart heads too CUSDX68M. I suggest heading to your local shop and play with a couple to see what feels right to you.

You'll like the 7' for longer casts with light dart heads. That extra length makes a difference.
