I'll second Ebens reply with the duel rods. It might not be the answer your looking for, but think about the applications you're attempting....That's kinda tough to split too different fishing presentations with one rod and expect it to work properly.
When fishing the Canal, drifting eels, large plugs, 4.0 + oz.metals I use conventional. When I use smaller plugs, stick baits or small eels I'll bring my spinning, it kinda sux lugging around to poles, but ya gotta do what it takes to do different applications, right.
