So i'm looking into fenwick rods since we get the pure fishing discount, and i'm trying to figure out what strength i should get. I'm trying to find one i can use for both walleye (mostly jigging) and bass (probably for texas rigs and other plastics and maybe some small cranks). I'm thinking that going with medium would work, what do you guys think?

Spinning or baitcasting?

A medium power would work great. I definitely wouldn't go heavier. You'll want to get a 7 foot or longer.

Definitely. It will give you a better hookset on t-rigs, allow you to throw cranks farther, and give you better sensitivity on jigs. If you were throwing strictly walleye jigs, I'd say an even longer rod (like a 7'2") and medium light would be best. You will disappointed if you go less than 7.

def. go longer. 7' or 7' 6" even. I don't know what models they have but med. will work for most T-rigs (unless you throw a lot of big worms), but you will probably not be able to deal with a C-rig very easily. Long casts require stiffer rods to get the hooks home.
