I would personally get a Shimano Scorpion for the $150.00. I have 4 of them
and will probably add another one next year, I would talk to Steve H about a
custom rod to suit your needs

Sounds good. It seems like I can certainly get what I need under budget.
Gotta love that. Can I get away with a 2 pc rod? I travel alot to fish.

I currently fish with a St Croix Avid 6'6" 2pc med power fast action rod
with a Shimano Stradic MgFa and want to add a bait casting rig to my
arsenal, what do you all suggest? I can spend about $400 - $500 for the
rig. Wouldn't mind spending lees if I don't have to sacrifice quality.
