I've felt the Duckett ghost 7' med. And like the feel of it. Saw the ABU verosity online but haven't found one on the shelf to feel. Any insight to either of these rods?

DO NOT GET THE GHOST! Braid will eat the eyes up! I fish with flouro and mono and that even ate the eyes up. Look at Falcon Bucoo, by far my favorite rod between $100-120. Light, sensitive, great eyes, good reel seat, and I've slammed mine against the trolling motor a few times without harm.

I'll have to look into them. Thanks for the info
