I'm looking at getting a new custom rod for bigger fish, walleye and jumbo perch and was seeing what you fokes are using For your set up.

I have a similar set up (not custom) in a medium and medium light set ups and both are equipped with Shimano Sienna in the 500 size series.  For under $30 its a great real.  If you shop around you can get them for less as there was a rumor they were being discontinued yet I keep seeing them in stock at such places like dicks, cabelas, etc.  If you are running heavier line than 8 lb and want more than 100 yards you might want to consider the 1000 size series but personally done like using larger reals ice fishing.  Good luck.
