Default Fenwick Aetos Spinning Rod

Thoughts, experiences with the Aetos? Read a few reviews from guys who had problems with the guides, either being too rough on line or breaking off. Was this only an issue in a short run of these rods?

Also between the Medium light power XF action (7'6") and the medium power fast action (7') which would be the better all-purpose walleye rod? Thinking mostly for casting cranks, jigging, and light duty bottom bouncing and trolling rigs

Pretty tough to make one rod do all especially when you are including bottom bouncing and trolling. If that is what you want then best to go with the med.7ft. Fenwick makes a good rod so you should be good to go with the med. fast.

Ahh, in that case I might just pick up an uglystik for trolling- would the MF still be the best option for everything else?
