Century Rods
Ill throw out some info and maybe one of these will fit your needs.
century has a few rods that fit your suggested lure weight range.
I have the rods listed below and have actually used them in the surf.
you are welcome to try them out if you want, i have met up with a few other people from the site to let them demo the rods themselves instead of just reading online descriptions.
The first one is the sling shot 1265 rated 1 to 3.5oz, 10'6' but can be cut 6" off the butt, fast action, two piece, 50/50 split with machined ferrules, light weight and fast recovery. This is killer bucktail, redfin, sp minnow rod, nice all around rod for the beaches and surf, works a pencil nice too. Will throw the whole weight range nicely, from .75oz to 3oz all day, Suggest retail is $340
The second one is the stealth s1 rated 1 to 4oz, 10', two piece, 60/40 split with machined ferrules, moderate action. Real world will throw .75 to 3.5oz, I used this rod a lot in the spring. Awesome pencil rod, and very easy to throw plugs with it all day. Suggested retail is $335
the one thing about the century rods is your not power casting with them to get the distance, I use about 70% power to cast, which means i can fish longer without killing myself power casting all night.
The thing with a lot of the newer rods, st croix, cts, century, is the materials used, concept guide layout, higher end components, light weight, better recovery. This all adds to the price. A concept rod with 7 fuji guides and hi end reel seat, handle materials will be more than a standard cof guide layout with cork grip.
Your best bet is to try the rods out at a demo or show.
