You forgot your favorite rod of all time Parker...the 1143C. grin
I saw you were trying to sell your TH Rainshadow 1025C last year...do you still have it?

I wiggled Stams Sage/Chronarch a couple of years ago and really wished I hadn't...without a doubt the lightest, sweetest feeling drift setup I have ever wiggled...

Ike - Stam has that 1025 now. It went to a good home. You can have/keep any and all 1143's you find. I won't be getting in line to fight over 'em. laugh

Swinger - how many years did it take you to come up with the notion to NOT buy the Revo?

I watched a Revo take a dump recently on a fishing trip. I've neverfished one. Now I never will. But even though I'll probably outfish dude who called me a wanker,I'll never amount to the great one,Parquito!!! bow

Brand and model will depend on how much you want to spend. For a rod that will be used for spoons AND drift gear, I'd be looking for a specific length. An 8.5' rod sucks for spoons. A 10.5' rod sucks with drift gear. 9.5' is short enough to comfortably fish drift gear but long enough to fish spoons.
The St. Croix Wild River rods have a very nice feel to them for a bit less coin than the Avid series. If I'm banking it for a day, I pick my rod based on what I'll fish. If it's spoons and drift gear, I take a 9.5' Avid. If it's spoons and floats, I take a 10.5' Wild River.
