Hi all , I'm after a new or hardly used jig rod to match my stella 20000. Gonna be loading it with pe8 or pe10. Had a look at a jigging shop at the mc works which was mint but very expensive, although I dont mind spending if its a must .After something in the 300 -500 gram range. Thinking possibly a synit or jigging master for around a grand ? Any suggestions on other brands would be helpful or what others are using. Have heard the shimano blue rose is quite average. Cheers in advance Johnny |

| Be good to see one before I buy and see what the action is like. Have heard they are good .I see they are sold through de coro. Anyone else sell them? Better give them a call and see what they have. Cheers |

| Decisions decisions. Will be using it as a livebaiting rod after the trip so doesn't have to last forever. Definitely don't wanna be undergunned at the kings though as I plan on going max drag on the Stella |

Check out the Jig Star Ninja MH spin rod. 1/2 to 1/3 price of those other brands and you won't be disappointed. I have jigged the overhead versions at the 3 Kings and Ranfurly the last few years with outstanding results. Check out Rod and Reel in Newmarket as I know they have them.  ------------- give it death! |

| Cheers Chris sounds like a good option. I'll have a look when I get the time. Laidbackdood I think the high rails of cova rose will hold me nicely . Eat your spinach and you might improve your grip ! |
