Which Rod?

Well, my federal income tax return showed up in my bank account today and while most of it must go to paying blls, I decided I was going to treat myself to one nice rod. However, I have narrowed it down to two rods and am now unsure as to which to choose. Id really like some help and some opinions.

Here are the two I am torn between:

This one in the 6'6" MH (or 7' M perhaps)

or this one in the 6'10" MH
http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/t...ode=IG&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat20374

they are both top brands and both cost about the same.

which would you pick and why? should i just flip a coin? lol I desperately need a new spinning rod this year. My 15+ year old All Stars have seen better days.

Don is selling out all his Phinex rods for $60 becuase he switch to Lamiglas this year. These are very good rods worth anywhere from $150 to $200, call him: 818/848.6180, drop my name and he may double the price.

I known Don before he knew how to fish, we go back a few years. If he doesn't treat you right, I know where he lives. Just tell him what type of rod you need, the type of baits you intend to use and he will give a good product, after all he is a hall of fame bass pro.
