I also have a few 10 year old 7ft black fiberglass Penn Powersticks are pretty good I think they are the Medium Light or Light versions of the rods. With the 6500 series abus the rods also double as great chunking rods for bass . . . up to 25 - 30 lbs.

BS, that's pretty much what we use down here for stripers...mainly the 6500s for a little more line...rod sounds the same, too only we drop down to 15# line...got a 23 lber in that the other day...LOTTA fun...
