One of the best CASTING worm, jig rods made. You'll want a little more length for flippin' and pitchin', but that one will do the trick in a pinch.

Your hands and wrist will thank you, referring to the weight of the rod after 8 to 10 hours a day.

American Legacy store has 25% off all Gloomis rods as of yesterday. I do not know how long that sale is going to last though?
