Why are you looking at conventional gear for light tackle? Spinning is much more practical, although not as trendy to speak about in the online fishing world these days. An 8ft spinning rod rated for 2oz with a Penn 4500ss or 5500ss or similar shimano will probably be a more useful for light tackle and eliminate the hassles of throwing light stuff on with a conventional, especially into the wind. The 8ft St Croix Ben Doerr is a great rod with a lot of guts. You can also have a custom rod built on that same blank.
