Lamiglas is a solid choice and has many production rods to consider. Here are a couple links to some of their rods you may want to consider:

Lamiglas Tri-Flex Inshore - Lamiglas: Tri-Flex Graphite Inshore

Lamiglas Inshore classic - Lamiglas: Graphite Inshore Classic Series

The Tri-Flex series have glass-tipped rods. Maybe the top 1/3 of the rod is glass transitioning into grahpite. Althought they say "fast" action, most are more like moderate fast I would say. The Inshore series is more moderate.

You mentioned a wide range of what you might throw with this type of rod. The ones I listed may be light if you plan on throwing 8" bunker, chunking, eels, big plugs, etc. You may want to look into their Tri-Flex Saltwater series - Lamiglas: Tri-Flex Graphite Saltwater . These are a little heavier. Throwing a tin and throwing a live bunker on the same rod doesn't really yield a good all around rod. You'd be better off doing a rod to handle bait and one for lures.

I've built a lot of custom Lamiglas Tri-Flex rods for customers. The Tri-Flex line-up is great with any braided line.
