With some Christmas money I am going to add a spinning rod to the river fishing arsenal.

I have it down to one of the three listed Lamiglas's below or one of three similarly sized St. Croix Avid series.

I fish from the bank and am looking for a rod to fish steelhead to kings (more steelhead and smaller salmon but a fair share of kings) from the bank using floats, jigs, baits..."MAYBE" even occasional spoon.

Any expert insite and advice is greatly appreciated.

Also, what is the weight of each of these..can not find how much they weigh anywhere.

Which one of the rods below would you choose based on my information provided above and WHY?

************************************************************************

X10MS float rod, 10', Medium Power, 8-12lb line rating, 3/8-3/4 lure rating, fast action.

X10MTS float rod Magnum Taper, 10', Medium Magnum Power, 8-17lb line rating, 1/4-5-8 lure rating, fast action.

X96JS Steelheader Jig Spin, 9' 6", Medium Power, 6-15lb line rating, 1/4-3/4 lure rating.
