Plastics Rod Strength/Action?

My monkey is acting up, so here's a quick question. I'm looking at a dedicated worm/craw/lizard rod, Texas rigged 90% of the time. Lite sinkers are 1/8 oz and heavy is 3/8 oz, with 1/4 oz being used the most often. I'm looking at a BPS Carbonlite trigger in the 7 foot range. Here's the options:
6'9" mh/xfast
7' m/fast (tied for first place)
7' m/mod (may have possibilities)
7' mh/fast (top contender)
7' h/xfast

I already have a Carbonlite 7'2" med/fast spinning rod for small flukes and floating worms, and I love it. The sensitivity for the price is great, and I decided my next BC rod would be a Carbonlite about ten minutes after I tried it for the first time. So, which action/strength would you go with?
