8' TDR Rods by Shimano 2 Pc Heavy Rods work well for trolling just about everything. They are Great Rods and the are CHEAP less than $35 each.............

I agree with the others, no need for a heavy stiff rod. I use 10' long Ugly Sticks that are made for salmon trolling and they work great. I pull 14' Jakes, 13" Grandmas, Plows, Hookers, etc.. and it works just fine.
