Hi,

That is a big spread in jigs, 6-12 oz. Which size do you use most?

Will you be using mono or synthetic line? What pound test?

Where will you be fishing? Will it be on a party/chater boat or personal boat? How hi above the water will you be standing? These questions are to determine how long a rod you will need.

Do you like fiberglass, graphite or composite rods? Composite being a combination of graphite and fiberglas which adds up to sensitivity and flexibility. Best for synthetic lines.

Help me out with answers and we will come up with suggestions. Also I'm sure other fishermen will chime in with their favorite models.

Hi,

The rod Billy 40 is referring to is the "MEAT STICK".

It is a great blank to build on as it is very sensitive.

I have one as a demo rod for customers to test. You are welcome to try it out.

Just contact me. (631) 567-8049.

In fairness I do have to say that I sell them for approx $375.

Check out Seeker, Diawa, Lamiglas, Star rods and Shakespeare and you will fin sticks capable of performing well for your use.

Take your reel with you and place it on the rods you like to get a good feel of the combination.

Seeker has many options that I like.

The offer to test any of my demo rods is always there.

Have fun with your new rod and reel.
