I use an Abu Garcia rod for jig fishing (not the veritas) and like it. Whatever you get, make sure it is heavy action. Lost some nice ones for a year trying to use a MH.

Falcon Bucoo Lizard Dragger will be your best bang for your buck. I have a few of these and they make great jig rods from finesse to football jigs. it's a 7' Hvy action rod with great sensitivity

If you are at academy.....look at the cheaper H2O Ethos HD rods. 7'3" heavy. It is a very well made rod with name brand components, like Fuji seat, Fuji guides, and a very good blank. Only negative, it's a little heavy with the painted finish....not crazy, but heavier. It fishes EXACTLY the same as my Cara ST Amistad. And costs $69.00. Leaves you $30 to buy some jigs and trailers. The man is right nothing wrong with the ethos hd plus if it breaks academy will gladly take it back. Got a couple of their med crankin rods no complaints. J D
