Black-framed Fuji® Alconite® Concept guides--light and sensitive--are the perfect complement, as are the precision Fuji reel seats. The select-grade cork handles have all been re-thought and re-shaped; for pure comfort and leverage, there's really nothing comparable! Manufacturer's limited lifetime warranty. Handcrafted in the USA. Action: UL = Ultra Light L = Light ML = Medium Light M = Medium MH = Medium Heavy

You may want to look at the Shimano Sedona 1000FD - the 500FD is too small

I would highly recommend the AVID series rod. I have a Shimano Saros 2500 on my Avid 6'6" medium duty rod. Excellent rod and reel combo, although a 7' rod would be just as nice. These rods are well worth the money, you can feel every twitch and they handle superb during a fight!

answer 2
If you're going to use one rod for all applications, that is different types of fishing (soft plastics, jigs, spinnerbaits, topwater, jerkbaits, crankbaits etc.) then the best choice would be a 7' medium-heavy power fast action. This is a good choice for an all around rod. Its not ideal for all lures, but if you had to pick one that should be it. When you have the money I would suggest investing in a baitcasting combo if you fish with spinnerbaits, crankbaits, jigs or swimbaits as they cast much further and more accurately.

Question
How are the medium light rods for bass?
I just got the AVS66MF one piece spinning rod in the mail. It feels like it has a little too much backbone and stiffness. I like to fish weightless worms and light weight texas rigs, so I dont kno how that would work with the medium action. I was wondering if the medium light avid spinning rod would be to light to fish with other things like 3/8 ounce jigs and spinnerbaits?
