I'd recommend the 1025 or 1084 as the all around rod, although the 1024 is almost identical to the 1084 just 6"s shorter. There's nothing wrong with a TH or Rouge rod, or allstar they all make good rods. But if you have the addiction and plan to fish forever I would step up and spend the little extra money.
