Looking for under 9.5 foot baitcasting rod for Coho and Steelhead in small stream.

I have an 8'6 rainshadow custom xst 1025F baitcaster rod for sale. 3 seasons old. Built this rod for toss spinner mainly but also drift roe and caught some spring with it. Asking $150.
I did not do this, it is done by a rod builder I know in USA. Below photo shows the lower half. Rod was built with light weight in mind. EVA is used instead of cork, and top grip is also served as reel lock.

Not sure your price range. Cabela's currently has this for sale:

I tried looking for the combo I got last year, but doesn't look like they have it. It was an Abu Black Max low profile with their IM6 rod in 8.5' (M) and 9' (MH) for $49.99. Good to have an extra reel. You might want to inquire and see if they'll sell you the same combo. Doesn't hurt to ask.
