Chris ... you DO realize you posted these questions in the White Bass/Hybrid Striper forum ... right
If you're intention is to use "jigs" for Bass .... your Med/Hvy rod might not be a bad choice (if it's in the 6-7ft length range). But, if you're talking about using jigs for Whites/Hybrids ... you might want to tell us what size fish you're likely to encounter. That'd give us a better idea on what rod to consider suggesting. You'd definitely want a rod that could handle whatever size line you intend to use.
