All the rods I suggested above, are over $600
IMO You have brought a quality reel , you would be better to wait and save till you have enough $$$ for a quality rod to match it with.

Have you look at the jig star range.....price is below $600....the 350 g will be a good match I reckon..... |

| Jig star would be the go, tried and tested and very affordable. |

I agree SJ I sold a Jigstar 350 to a fishing mate the other day and he bolted his trini 40n to it and even I had to agree the reel suited the rod well. That reel is almost the same as your OJ4000 The Smiths AMJ52h may be a tad light for the OJ and this rod better suits a Diawa z40 size reel. ------------- http://www.boulderguiding.co.nz">  http://www.boulderguiding.co.nz">www.boulderguiding.co.nz |

Jig Star 350 sounds exactly what you need for under $500. These rods are the best bang for bucks around. ------------- give it death! |

Steven.. there are lots of option on your price range..
Jigwrex 400
Offshore 400 Jig rods
T-curve Deep 400Jig
Jig Star 350
Daiwa Monster Mesh
Personally, I will wait for somebody to sell a used JM PS 350 or Terminator 400. Check out the Offshore rods..
