Jigging rod for walleye


reata

Recommended Posts

I'm in the market for a new rod for jigging for walleye at LOW. I've been using a 7ft shimano ml fast for the last seven years and I'm ready for a change. I have a shimano stradic c14 +FA reel  that I like but I am interested in what spinning rods everybody else is using for straight down jigging. length, power, action, and brand, thanks.

For vertical jigging, I'm a fan of Cabela's Fish Eagle 50 and XML rods.  For the money, they are extremely excellent and sensitive rods.  I use either 6'6" or 7' medium light action rods with fast tips.

I love my Fenwick Elite Tech jigging rod. It has a nice sheen on it now from all the shiner minnows on LOW.

Ditto on the Elite Tech walleye jigging rod. I bought mine two years ago this spring and love it!

just treated myself to a 66 L for nightcrawlers.  ml or m for jigs sled?  

I'm not picky, whatever I grab. I use fireline so I still can get good hooksets on a lighter action rod due to no stretch. I troll with stiffer rods cause I used 1 1/2 oz bouncers exclusively

I have one of those and like it as well. Little softer tip than my Fenwick Elite Tech Ultra Fast tip.
