A nice stiff Ugly Stick will do it.
You should not be casting far for tog. You should be more or less lobbing the bait nearby and using the stick to vertically winch the toothy bastadges out of the rocks before they try to swim down and tangle you in the rocks.
If you're gonna get a custom stick, I would suggest an Allstar 1209 (10 footer), which you can also use at the Ditch to fling heavier jigs (3 oz and up).
Either Saltheart or MikeCC can tie you a nice stick for a very reasonable price.
