Got a “light” fishing rod

Hey guys! Quick question. Been fishing for several years now. Still always learning and improving. I bought myself a nice medium rod I am going to use for bass or other larger species. Yesterday I also purchased a “light rod, 6.6 foot, moderate action” my dad said I’ll hate this rod because it’s flimsy at the tip and the bites will feel light. However I wanted a rod specifically for pan fish which I still enjoy a lot as well or whatever decides to bite. I feel like my “medium light” rod for walleye was still kind of ripping the lips out of pan fish, especially crappie! *What pound test would you recommend for this rod?* I was thinking 4 to 6 lb mono?* I think I’m going to love it and my dad is just too set in his ways lol. But I’m open to trying it all and want different rod options. Also I know the rod is long but I prefer that for some reason idk why yet.
