I've been using a JM Meatstick, I like the soft tip for the lite crappie bites, and I use one of those gay little blue reels, i think HT makes them, they are small profile and lite.

Marmish rods for really small jigs and JM Panfish with Cahill fly reel for larger jigs. The Cahill reel is about 3 " diameter and made of something non-metal, so your fingers won't freeze to it. Functional drag, which came in handy on the bass I caught today. The Marmish is great for #14 and smaller jigs when fish are finicky, great bite indicator.

The Genz rods are nice. I use mine sight fishing and in deep water with a spring bobber. They have an awesome backbone

I bought a Gander Mtn GTX 28" perch combo and spooled it up with 4lb fluoro. First trip with it I had a laker up at Magog that wouldn't fit through the hole. I also have a couple ice blue rods, L24" (with ice blue reel) and L30" with a Quantum ultra-lite spinning reel I use for brookes through soft water. For pike I have a St. Croix Signature m30" with a Shimano 2000 series reel. Last year I yarned up a 7 pounder with it.

I use a Jason Mitchell Meatstick with a Gander Mountain Pro series reel, 3 lb P-line fluoroice as my main rod, but will be using my own custom rods with Okuma SLV fly reels for a majority of the fishing this year...6 weeks to go where I am !

Well in my rod case right now I’ve got the following: HT Iceman Power System ICH-28 w/Diawa Aird 1000 15lb/4 dia. ProwerPro Dave Genz True Blue DGTB26 combo 6lb Trilene Ice Frabill 24” Ulta Light w/Shimano Sienna 500FD 3lb Trilene Ice Frabill 24” SenSive Rod w/Shimano Sienna 500FD 3lb Trilene Ice St. Croix Legend Ice 17” Light w/Shimano Sienna 500FD 3lb Trilene Ice RippinLips custom 24” Heavy w/Shimano Stradic 2500FI 8lb/1 dia. ProwerPro My jig assortment varies and not nearly as nice as what I’ve seen others have. I’ve got Lindy, Wolfram, Marmish and Bentley’s Swarovski crystal, ProScandinavia ProPimple and Northland. For lake trout fishing it’s mostly bucktails, Lindy and Deadly Dicks and Swedish Pimples. I’m always looking to add to my jigs boxes

I have Austin Custom Rods site saved in my favorites I just already had the RippinLips rod on order and didn't look at the Austin rods yet. Seems like I can get some good feed back as to which rod to order for next year

Seems like I can get some good feed back as to which rod to order for next year They are nice rods but you always take the risk of breaking them... by the looks of your case you should be set! I have a quick tip and a noodle. Both are very good options.
