luvias rod for certate

Hello all, i have been looking for a new rod to match with my certate 2506 cause the t curve it is on atm has a real short butt and it doesnt suit it at all imo
looking at getting one of the luvias rods and i was after some feedback as i have never used one ( does it have a fast action or is it a noodle )
like i said it will be matched to a certate 2506 finesse - the old one, and i am also getting a 2500 spool for a bit more capacity and a little heavier braid, do you recon i could get away with one of these rods to suit both say 6 to 10 lb line, perhaps the 701MFS... or would that be a bit overkill...
thanks everyone for the help.

The mfs is definitely a bit too much of a stick to be used as an all rounder. The 2-6lber is the pick of the bunch for breamming imo...

If i was you, save another couple bucks and get the storm shadow mlfs.

Here for 400 bucks, sick all rounder.

I play with most of them in the range in the tackle store couple of weeks before, IMO it is too stiff especially for SP and small HB...and i reckon the Saltist Light Rock Fish Game is much better as a all rounder....but end of the day it is up to style u r fishing.
