Sparkle now you have me waffling between the Heavy and X-Heavy rod. I would be using the rod for jigging at Cold Lake .Any Laker experts out there? What would be the better rod? Fore-sure I would go with the 4000 size reel. The 3000 is a 2500 body with a deeper spool for line capacity.

The heavy rod has a significant amount of backbone. I've only used mine a bit, but didn't feel it was too light for jigging, even with a large Bondy Bait.
