I think it' s a personal preference as to what feel you like. About the best I' ve found would be 5' 6" medium action. It has a blend of flick and stiffness that just feels great in the hand. Hain' t bought one of those yet, but it' s on the list. It' d be a good idea to go to a pro shop and flick ' em around a little and see if you like how it handles. If it isn' t comfortable for you then you probably won' t fish well with it.
