In my opinion , I would go with a custom rod made on an Allstar blank and an Abu Garcia Big game 6500Cl reel. the rod could be made on the 1145/2 blank or if you can handle the extra foot , the 1265/2. Price will be about $350 plus taxes for the combo and nobody will have eqwuipment more suited to the job regardless of price.
BTW , i say custom cause the factory allstars have too many guides
