I was going to purchase the Daiwa Spinmatic Tuflite rod and I realized there are many options to choose from.
I found the Spinmatic®-C Ultralight rods but it doesn't say Tuflite anywhere?
Also, for trout, pike minnow, kokanee, etc, which size of rod should I be looking for?
I currently have the following options:
Length: 7'6 ft  Model: SMC 762ULFS Power: UL   Action: Fast    Line wt: 2 - 6 Lure wt: 1/32 - 1/4    Number of guides: 9
Length: 8 ft     Model: SMC 802ULFS Power: UL   Action: Fast   Line wt: 2 - 6  Lure wt: 1/32 - 1/4  Number of guides: 9
Length: 6 ft     Model: 602ULFS        Power: UL   Action: Fast   Line wt: 1 - 4  Lure wt: 1/32 - 1/8   Number of guides: 8
Length: 6'6" ft Model: 662ULFS        Power: UL   Action: Fast   Line wt: 2 - 6  Lure wt: 1/32 - 1/4   Number of guides: 8                           
Length: 7 ft     Model: 702ULFS        Power: UL   Action: Fast   Line wt: 2 - 6  Lure wt: 1/32 - 1/4   Number of guides: 9                             
 
Next is the 4pc Pack Rod Daiwa SMC Spinmatic Series
Length: 5'6" ft Model: SMC 564ULFS  Power: UL Action: Fast Line wt: 1 - 4 Lure wt:1/32 - 1/8  Number of guides: 7
Length: 6'0" ft Model: SMC 604ULFS  Power: UL Action: Fast Line wt: 1 - 4 Lure wt:1/32 - 1/8  Number of guides:8
Length: 6'6" ft Model: SMC 664ULFS  Power: UL Action: Fast Line wt: 2 - 6 Lure wt:1/32 - 1/4  Number of guides:8
Length: 7'0: ft Model: SMC 704ULFS  Power: UL Action: Fast Line wt: 2 - 6 Lure wt:1/32 - 1/4  Number of guides:9

If anybody could help me out that would be great. I already have a reel that I could put on the rod.

Go into Berry's and try them out. Most of the models listed are available on their rack (702ULFS, 662ULFS, 602ULFS, SMC 604ULFS, SMC 564ULFS).

--Its the reel... I'm having trouble with.
--Hard to find the smaller reel that isn't a toy without spending big bucks.
