I have both. the 6'8" Triple Cross tubular tip is my favorite dock shooting rod, but not that fun with small sunfish. The 6'8" Aji Do has a very fine solid tip and is a lot more sensitive blank than the Triple Cross. Because they are Aji rods, they are fast action and get into the backbone of the rod very quickly. I prefer the Aji Do for fishing 1/32 oz. and less jigs. Not as fun for small fish as rods that bend further into the blank, but it's no broomstick with that super skinny tip. Another rod you might consider is the Yamaga Blanks Blue Current III in the 6'3" model
Much more limber than the Aji rods, but definitely not a noodle.
