Jigging rod for heavy jigs

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I am looking to build a vertical jigging rod to use on the Detroit River.  We use 3/4oz to 1oz jigs in heavy current.  What I am looking for is recommendations for a good quality blank to use and where to buy them.  The spinning rod needs to be 6ft or shorter, medium to medium heavy action. I also need to make it short between the butt and the reel seat. Thanks.

not sure if you already got some information. This is the blank I used for my personal use last year on the Detroit river using 3/4 ounce jigs. this is a 6' 3" blank, medium/extra fast tip.  got at MUDHOLE.  MHX High-Mod Gen II Mag Taper Rod Blank MB752XF
SKU : #HM-MB752XF-MHX

I haven't found one yet to put together. There is one at Jans Netcraft that's 6ft IM6 medium heavy blank. I am going to look at the one from Mudhole too. Not sure which blank would be better, almost looks like the Mudhole one might be better.  Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.
