Jigging Rod

[jeff56]

I have an Calstar graphiter 700xh,.....excellent rod.I got it last year from paul708 ....It comes highly rated...It is my only designated jigging pole for tuna.
Can handle just about anything,and is quite light.I jig with a freind who uses the trevala,and that pole does way to much bending for me,even though they are rated 80 to 200 lb line/270 gram jig.....
I am now having a stcroix jigger made,with trigger grip,to use with my new everol 6/12,(20 oz)that gets 22lb drag at strike.....rod is rated for 100lb,and is about as light as the trevala rod,and it will handle 8-20 oz jigs.
A lot of shows coming up,and I will go and check some more blanks out.

Take a look at the new Cedros Jig Rod made by Okuma. I just bougt one of their spinning rods at our local show, $99, but haven't used it yet. I like the way it's designed and feels. I also have one of the Shimano's and it is my favorite with a Avet JX, but just wanted to try something different in the Okuma.
