Thorne Bros have a better than average description than most other sight, it still ( on some of there model) gives very little info... The description of the two rods that you suggested are exactly not the type I am looking for. I am looking for a stiff, but sensitive tip.
I live in New Hampshire and ran into the same problem. I wanted a heavier jigging rod to use for jigging lake trout. The only one I found was made by Frabill. The problem is that the rod comes with no reel seat or even rings to hold the reel on the rod. Now in the mid-west, this is the norm (or so frabill tells me). To be fair, when I called Frabill to complain, they agreed to send me a roll of special reel tape that they sell seperately. The tape holds the reel in place just fine but it looks like it is jury-rigged. I'm not sure if it is the folks in the mid-west that are different or us here in New England . . . after all Mass. is a New England state and there is an awful bunch of dunderheads there who keep voting Kerry and Barney Frank back into office.
the frabill bro series deadstick rod has a sensative tip almose like an ultralight and yet it has the backbone of a medium. designed for deadsticking minnows in that the tip is super light in that if quivers at the sligtest movement of the minnow. i had this rod in my gun rack in the back of the truck and just driving down the road made the tip quiver i like it. only draw back to it is that its 28 inches long seen as its designed for just sitting on the ice but you can totally jig for perch and crappie with it and even walleye.
