I use pretty much the same set up, except I use the 27's. I use a couple of different rods for trolling with boards. I like the Bass Pro Shops P/K Planer Board/Trolling rod. It is 8"6" and telescopic. I also use the Gander GS Planer Board rod. It is the same length as the BPS but this one is a two piece. The Gander rod is a bit softer as well. I believe the BPS rods are around $50. and the Gander Rod is around $40. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

I use all HookHider fishing rods, the 8' telescopic is great especially for cranks because you can hide the hooks of the crank up the handle. This makes it easy for runnin' and gunnin' or storage for your next trip. Their IM-6 so you have plenty of sensitivity and backbone. I've used them on Saginaw and caught alot of fish except I was using ReefRunners LiL'Rippers try those to they out produced the hot & tots 2 to 1 blue and chrome was the ticket.
