I have decided to switch to cashion rods to replace my current rods and was wondering how they compared in terms of rod tip stiffness
(I know they are saltwater rods but i intend on using them for freshwater)

Gx2 medium action rod= element inshore flounders and red rod medium heavy

Gx2 medium heavy= core inshore popping core medium heavy

I didn't know they made saltwater rods. Anyway, I had the 7ft3 MH and it was a sweet rod.
you will either love or hate the grip
You should buy the freshwater versions

i will continue to look unto freshwater
How do they compare to the gx2 ugly stik models in terms of rod stiffness
I looking into saltwater models because they can hold the heavier weight for situations like
Senko on 1oz jighead, dropshotting in the st lawrence ect

I have no clue about the ugly stiks but the Cashion would be a much better rod.. I wouldn't use a weight anywhere where near a oz. on a Senko, It's all about how that bait falls and having it sink like a brick kinda defeats the purpose.

It works surprising well in deeper water with heavier current
