I grabbed a couple of 10 footers from Gander this year, they were aobut $35 each on sale. So far so good, two piece too so they don't take up the space.

i like the Shimano TDR rods.
two piece rods for easy storage, moderate action with decent power.
inexpensive (i got mine for $25 each).

Okuma makes affordable dipsey diver rods with enough backbone for trolling muskies as well.

Ugly Stick from Shakespeare. $40-50. Can't go wrong. Nearly indestructable.

I agree with MuskieMike, I use the Okuma Classic Pro Dipsey rods in 8 1/2 foot med-hvy action. You can get those for $25.

Thanks for the advice. Went with the 10' Gander Dipsy Divers Heavy action two piece at $30 a pop. Will be hitting Green Bay all day Saturday...colder weather this week might bode well for the weekend.

I've got an 8 1/2 ft Maina Bass Pro two piece musky rod that is a little light for casting, but would make a great trolling rod if anyone wants it. $40 plus shipping.
