Shimano is good I like the lighter Calstar Graphiters with a nice small shimano calcutta 200 or 300, look on the classifieds i think i saw one on here about a couple days ago for sale and really cheap.

there's a thread over on sdfish right now. sound's like 7'8" Crucial's as far as the Shimmy's go. H and XH. I use an 858 seeker inshore w/ 400te, but only because I can't find a 300te right now! Curado 300's are popular too

I throw all my heavier swimbaits with an Okuma EH Guide Select. The rating is 2-10 oz. I think I paid $110 for it last year. No problems so far...
