ggffrr11 said: Cabellas sells these in several different "weights" (?) - I have two of these and take the heavier one to the BVI. I have had several fish "head that away" with the lure and never turn around. But, that has more to do with my line weight than the rod. Which model?

fstorms said: These are good George. I have two. They are a solid setup for trolling. A bit tricky to find, but sometimes amazon has them. Not too expensive either.
Okuma Nomad Xpress Boat Rod.
It's a 3 piece 7/footer. Those might work well!

I have a couple of the Okuma travel spinning rods and they are holding up pretty good. I have them paired with a 5000 and 6000 series Penn reels. I found the best prices by going to the Okuma website, finding the model number of the rod I wanted and then just google it. I got mine here last year http://www.uplandgifts.com/okuma-nomad-x...CFVc2aQodUZsA2Q

Hey George, Bought a nice travel trolling rod from American Rodsmith several years ago, but I can not find it on their web site now. Found this site searching for travel rods. Couple of good options. CharkBait
