Hello Everyone, I am looking to get a new 10 weight rod with a fast action for some saltwater action. I like the ability to throw the heavy grains, to get down fast for some east coast Stripers and Albies. Usually in the 425 - 450 grain lines. My Current TFO 9 weight professional just seems too whippy at times!

But I was looking for a fast action taper rod, and was looking for suggestions? I know a lot of online reviews say the Sage Xi2 is an ideal rod for this, but I have casted other rods such as Albright's XX and Sage Flight, that seem to be even stiffer.

Does anyone have any advice on a Extra Fast Action taper 10 weight in 4 piece? I am trying to keep it relatively inexpensive, and if I went with the Sage Xi2 it would have to be used or custom. Thanks in Advance, for any insight.
