Quantum kinetic 42"
Jason mitchell 38"
St croix 36" and 42"

I have them all in medium action and they work great for walleyes, throw a pfleuger president on there and go nuts.

 I use a Berkley Lighting Ice Rod. It is Medium power and has 8 pound line on the reel.

I've tried out many different ice rods with many different actions, and when icefishing for Walleye, my personal favoirite is the Fenwick Elite Tech Ice Rod. I got two of these in 27" Medium and two in 26" Medium Light.

There priced at a decent price point for the quality of rod your getting.

I'll definitely be giving there summer Walleye series rods a try.
