Hey guys I am looking for a new worm and jig rod, I be throwing a lot of texas rigs, jigs, wobble heads, and other plastics with this rod, right now I have my choices, in a list but please feel free to mention any others if they are below $150

my current choices are:

Dobyns fury 703C (I am leaning toward this one)

Lew's TP-1 Speed Stick IM8

Powell Inferno Casting Rod

Okuma Scott Martin Signature TCS Casting Rod

Daiwa Tatula Casting Rod

Duckett Ghost

Tatula.

 

I like the Powell but for 150 you can pick up a max 3d. As long as you keep the jigs 1/2 oz. and under the 723 would be my choice. 

Also makes a great spinnerbait rod.

iRod Genesis II IRG744C.

The tatula is the best deal of the bunch. It can be found for 110 on eBay

I use a fenwick aetos and hmg. The aetos was on sale for about $120, but im not sure if it still is.

I have this rod, it's very versitale and will do exactly what you asking for and more.

Abu Garcia Mike Iaconelli Signature power series rod model 70-5.

+1 just under $150 the IRG744C- MH is one of the most universal and under rated jig-worm rods on the market.

The 703 Fury may be under powered for a worm/jig rod. I would suggest you consider the 704 or even better, the 734.   Look at the specs for each model and that should explain why I would move up a power.  The 734 in all Dobyns' series are very versatile. You've picked an extremely competitive group of rods, that's for sure.

In that price range, I'd take a close look at the St. Croix Mojo Bass Worm and Jig Rod. I bought the 6'8" model earlier this summer and absolutely fell in love with it. It's a great rod at the $130 price point. They also have a 7'1" model as well. Since their redesign, the sensitivity has went up and they have improved the overall balance of them.

 

St Croix Jig-N-Worm, or Jigs/Baits. They retail around $120. Great rods for the money!

My vote goes to falcon lowrider  amistad

I'll throw in another vote for the Tatula. It's hard to beat

If your ok going used the st Croix avid is a great rod and I like the older orange lamiglas excel.

Im also looking at a jig and worm rod.  I was looking at a tatula just not sure how the weird flared reel seat will feel.  Im looking at that rod or the dobyns sierra.  never actually seen a powell im person but im intrigued.

I don't know much about the other two rods. As far as the reel seat goes on the Tatula, once you put a reel on, you won't even notice it. The reel seat actually gives you a nice platform to have your finger in contact with the blank

The reel seat on the Tat kept me from buying them. ACS reel seat or I pass.  I have two Team Diawa rods. 6' and 6'6" MH. Great rods.

I ordered a fury 734 so I could save money for an E6x
