IMO can't beat a 6'6 or7' Penn Slammer for the money. Great conventional rod for casting chunks. Put a 310,320,330 GTI or a Shimano TLD Star or level and your all set.

the 6'6" penn slammer 20-40 is one of my favorite boat rods; hands down.. over the years we have caught sharks, bass bluefish and blackfish on these rods.. great value..
IMHO the penn powersticks make a nice eeling rod; plenty of backbone and a fast tip;

I third the Penn Rods. I have several, not one over $50, and all perform. Conventional and Spinning.

The only customs I have on my boat are my fluke rods, sorry I can't be of more help. You just need so many different rods on the boat that I try to find good inexpensive rods like the Penns for most of the stuff. Jiggin, spinnin poopers/tins to blues, eelin, trollin, chunkin, livebaitn, scuppin, tuna, flukin, etc....., and usually you want at least 2 of each, preferably 4!!! My wife thinks I have too many, little does she know I need about 8 more...
