What's the action on the sturdy stik?

It's fairly parabolic once it starts to bend and has a medium-soft tip. It can be used for pretty heavy weights/jigs and trolling but once a fish takes it, the rod has an arc from about 4" above the handle to the tip and is rather flexible.

Yoyo iron fishing isnt subtle, requires little or no casting, and is all about power. So a pure yoyo rod doesn't need to be long or sensitive. 6-7 feet, glass or graphite, and rated to fish 40-60 lb. Mike
