Mr Salmonoid, First of all whats your real name? so I may adress you by that, second I perfer a pretty stiff fast to extrafast action thats all graphite,as Dan (Seachaser)said I really like the shimano calcutta rods, but they are a little pricey.Im not familar with any of the rods you have listed,again I fish shimano and loomis rods exclusively,but Ive found that stock rack rods are WAY overated on their line recomodations, so with out handling those rods to check for stiffness and action I would recomend you lean towards the ones rated for 15-25lb line for you 15lb plastic set up.Also those allstar graphite rods are very nice rods for the money,and if had to by a plastic stick on a budget those are the rods I would seriosly look at. Also a little trick to check a rod for sensitivity, gently drag the tip of the rod across the linoleum floor,you should be able to feel the texture of the tile through the rod,if you cant feel it, put the rod back on the shelf! All quality factory wrap rod usually have triggers on them. Hope this helps..Larry
Real fish are measured in pounds - not inches!
