There are a few good options. I guess it would depend on your preference, and where/how you'll be fishing the senkos. The MB843 is a good MH rod for throwing around cover. If you wanted to go a little bit lighter you could also look at the SJ843 and SJ842, since these are spin jig blanks, they should have a little softer tip. I like 7ft (+) for this technique to get a little better casting distance. For wacky style around light cover, you could also look at the MB941. My $.02

SB-812 Blend!!! Throws 'em a mile and has lots of backbone but soft enough tip it won't tear the hook out ! Probably my favorite all purpose soft plastic blank ever! I have built in both spinning and casting configs. Granted, just my 2 cents , but unbelievable performing rod blank!

My choice is this blank designed specifically for throwing Sinko's and it’s the best I've found for doing so.

Its; Light, Crisp, Incredibly sensitive, a perfect combination between tip action, power, and balance.
