Default Best Sunk Line Work Rod

What in your opinion is the best rod on the market for sunk line work?
I currently use a 10' 7# HM2 for my sinker work but am looking to renew as I find it a tad too stiff.

The number 1 forum for the Irish game angler

All the same game angler.

Would be like Harry Corbett talking to Sooty.

I suppose you should really feel sorry someone who has so few friends that they have to make them up.

Yes that Latte guy has 30 years experience. Must be piles of expertise on your forum. Why you asking us?

Looking at the size of that signature you have all kinds of problems Pat.

Sincere apologies Pat. Really didn't mean to upset you. Hope you don't do anything nasty again. Just can't figure out why you need to be on this forum when you have all those experts in your own head.

"wee worlds", you are having a laugh anthony are you not.
