If you can wait to find them on special then the T-Curve BC Barra Hvy 601. Is pretty good. It throws 10-25gms and is classed at 6-10kg. Its right on the 6' mark. I got mine for $150 but that was some time ago
Recommend me a 6-10kg baitcast rod suitable for large plastics and 3-6" hard bodies.
I want graphite with a relatively short butt. Length can be from 6 to 7 feet, preferably with a fairly sensitive tip. Will be running 20lb braid over it.
I have every conceivably spin setup but still have this gaping hole in the baitcast range.
Max bucks is about 200.
Cheers.
Jack.

It really depends where you get yours from. I got mine for $245 - which is closer to 200 than 350 - It has a shorter butt than the 664
A rod I was going to look at for f.a.d. work was a Tcurve Revolution Offshore 702 OH ,5-8kg ,15-50gr....just under 200 clams.
I have a 6-10kg Strudwick Harbaitz. It's 5'6" and matched to a Shimano Curado with 20lb braid. It's great for casting hardbodies and soft plastics, as long as you can work with using a heavier jighead than you would with spinning tackle, but can throw anything over 1/4 ounce reasonably well. Don't know how much they set you back though, mine was a gift.
