Hey, I'm new to this site but you may recognize my name from other fishing sites.

At the end of the month I'm going to have a bunch of "points" that I can redeem for gift cards. I want to use some of this money to upgrade my musky rods and reels. I'll be limited to Amazon, Bass Pro, and Cabelas. I think I'm pretty sure I want to get an Okuma Komodo 350 and at least one Okuma EVX Musky rod. I want the Okuma rods because they are telescopic for easy transport and storage. I'm not sure which length and action rods to get.

My current rods:
7'6" St Croix Triumph MH
7'6" Cabela's Musky MH
7'6" Bass Pro Musky MH

My current reels:
(2) Revo Toro 50 High Speed
Revo Toro 50 Winch
Abu Record 6500
Abu Trophy 6600

I'll probably try to sell the Bass Pro rod and Record reel. The trophy reel I may use for trolling or a sucker rig down the road. I like the Triumph and Cabelas rods for throwing smaller lures, but I could part with one of them. My goal would be to have an all around rod that I could use for most things other than throwing big rubber. Then another rod probably shorter for jerkbaits,gliders and walk the dog baits.

TL:DR - what rods should I buy and what reels would you match them up with?
happy hooker

You need the longer 9-9 1/2 footer in heavy to add
Other then that you look pretty well equipped unless you HAVE to use those gift cards by a certain date I would save them till spring and see what might come out in 2016.
One thing about the okuma reels,,is for a while it was hard to.find someone that would service them maybe somebody here knows a place.
