I use a Dobyns Champion 703. If you don't want to spend that kind of money, I also have a Falcon Lowrider weightless worm rod in the arsenal. This Falcon was a quick purchase this time last year when I was traveling and needed a rod specifically for wacky senkos. I have to admit that I have been extremely pleased with the Falcon. It can cast a wacky rig against the wind, detect the slightest pickups and wrestle a couple of 7+ lb fish out of some thick cover.

I use a Kistler z-bone 7'6" 3 power. I pair it with Lews Tournament Lite. 15 lb Invisx. It's the perfect set up.

Powell Diesel 6103 medium, x-fast and a Diawa Legalis 2500SH spooled up with 16lb. Hi-vis (yellow) braid. Use a fluoro leader, anywhere from 6-17lb. tied on with an Albright knot. Casts any size senko like a bullet. Let a 3"-6" Senko free fall on slack line....watch your line closely for any movement. Works like a champ.

A 7'-7'3 inch medium action xfast for smaller senkos, and a 7'-7'3'' medium heavy fast or xfast action for bigger senkos. Maybe even a heavy action rod for the 7'' senko, they weigh like an oz. I use the G loomis NRX 7'1'' medium xfast spinning
