Any quality fiberglass rod would probably do the trick for you. Personally, I like to use the lightest ones possible. I usually don't drag around a full size hotspot, and it lets the fish fight a little harder. I don't think they make the 109 any more. Too bad, I love the two I have. Both are left-hand retrieve which is tough to find with the bigger Penn's and the Shimano saltwater reels.
