I've been fishing the canal for a few years now and have been trying different set ups on a budget. I started with an old rod (30+ years) re-guided a 704. I then changed reel to a yellow Nautil 7500, same rod.

I've used Tica's in the past with good success so I changed rod to a 10' Tica with the Nautil. Last year I switched to the Emblem Pro 5500 and used this as my jigging combo for the canal all season. Although I didn't lay into any large fish (30+ lbs), this combo worked the best so far. I primarily use 3-4 ozs jigs and was able to reach distances unattainable before. I have it loaded with PP50lb.

I may upgrade rod this year but for the $$, this rod & reel has worked out great for me.
