Curious what recommendations the experts have for a resonably priced conventional rod with the right tip for tog fishing. From what I understand the tip needs to have some flex and then the rod has to have enough backbone to move them, but I also like lighter action as opposed to overkill. I love my Shimano Trevala jigging rod for all around drift jigging (bass, fluke, black sea bass etc) and was thinking the S jigging rods they have coming out with might be nice, but they aren't keep either. Since I'm not doing this all the time, I'd like to get out of this for around $75. I don't seem me deep wreck fishing, so I don't want broom sticks with flexible tips, I'd like to have some fun with this and I don't care about the occassional lost fish.
