Hey guys,

I got a look at Stxfisherman's 665Extra Narrow last night and I'm gonna have to break down and get one for jigging! This reel has got to be the cat's meow for fishing for BIG fish!

Big problem is, what ROD would go with it? I'm talking about jigging for AJ and YFT in the bigger sizes. Most likely jigging with 80lb braid, maybe even 100lb JB. Jig weights will probably be 300 gram and up depending on the currents.

I haven't tried jigging with the heavier OTI rods, but will when I get a chance. What other rods are good suggestions? Any thoughts on acid wraps?
