>>2460096It depends on what weight lures you plan to throw on it. The rod I am about to recommend isn't really suited to throw anything over 1/8oz, but it will be a far better trout rod than any "medium light bass rod." I've caught all my biggest bass this past year on it too, on 6lb line.
I can't recommend this rod enough. It's actually cheap too.
> WMPSS70MLIt's marketed as a Crappie rod, so it casts light lures well, yet has good backbone since Crappie can get several pounds in weight. The rod beside it is also an excellent rod for targeting both small species and large ones, it's even more stout than the Crappie rod, but the trade-off is that 1/8oz lures are the minimum I throw on it. Therefore, it would be the better "bass rod" but also not the best "trout rod" compared to the other one, unless you are throwing a minimum of 1/8oz lures. Like I said, caught the bigger fish on the lighter rod so far ironically. I recommend these rods since they are so much more versatile than most.
