I use daiwa sealine sg17lca and accudepth plus adp17lca reels and will die bragging on these reels. right now if I was buying rods it would be the daiwa wilderness trolling rods in 8 ft medium for 15.95 at fishusa.com. but right now I have been just buying rods that felt good on my divers. I have 2 6.6 rods 2 wilderness 8 ft med action and two other rods that's 9 foot. just helps keep my lines to me divers separated. but for running inline or big boards it would be the wilderness 8' med rods. good luck.

Rods and Reels
I have been using Okuma Magda Pro 20s with Ugly Sticks 6 for big boards and 4 on downriggers. Most are 6 years old, and 2 are going in for repair. I am
either fortunate and I just feel no need to change either rod of reels. I also at times put out 2 OLD 5 ft. steel rods with dipsys or bottom bouncers and garage sale reels and always good for laughs when it's fish on.

Ugly Stick 1101's for the rods,
Okuma Magna Pro 30's and slowly switching all 18 rods over to Okuma Convectors... like going from an Escort to a Cadillac!
Of course I use the number 1 boards on the Lake.. Skipper 9 customs. I won't even sell my Amish Outfitter large boards to anyone because after using Skipper9's custom boards I'd never want anyone to use my old ones. My Amish Outfitter boards where great... so I thought until I switched. I can turn my 30' GLS in 4' waves and not think twice. With those other boards they skipped and jumped and ran all over when turning. I'm not pushing Jim's boards, but run BIG boards that track well and let you turn without going behind the boat all the time.

running Okuma 303D this year. 8 of them. Have Cabelas, Diawa accudepth plus, and Sealine, These reels will be moved to backups. Okuma reels are light years above the others. Powerful and smooth cranking power. There are I am sure better reels but I am very happy with the 303

Okuma Convectors
Been using the Convectors for a couple years now. Definetly worth the extra money!
