Hi folks,
Here's what I'm looking for...

rod 6'6" to 6' 9" (longest I'd go is 7')
TI or St. Croix Mojo price point (100-150$)
will team it with a high speed Curado (bass reel)

will throw fudally candy spins, 4" phantoms, sub walks, and twitch 6" slammers, and mini dawgs.

I think a St. Croix Mojo Sloppin' Frog might fit, but want to know what else is out there. I pm'd James from Tackle Industries already - so, looking at what else might be available during the sports show season that I just don't know about.

Thanks all,
Steve

How about a Premier 7ft H muskie rod? Its 180 but a nice rod. That reel IMO wont like the heavier baits your talking about though. BenR has some killer deals on NIB NACLs, Curado 300 and I think a LEXA also in the classifieds right here.

Bass flippin stick. I bought one on sale at bass pro for 20 bucks. Works great for small musky baits.

The Premier Muskie PM610MF would be a good choice.

I have a BPS muskie rod 7'6" xh paired up with a 200 curado which works great for exactly what you are looking to do. They also make a 6'3'' and 7' version also and they run approx $60 new... http://www.basspro.com/Bass-Pro-Shops-Graphite-Series-Muskie-Trigge... works great for early season rattle bait fishing down south as well

I use a ti mh and it works for me. Less stiff than a bass swimbait rod but with a longer handle.

thanks guys...I'll give bass pro a look and if I can get my hands on a premier and mojo to compare I'll do that.

Premier is full grip made in USA. Mojo is a split grip made in Mexico.
