Deep water laker rods

[Oilcan]

What type jigging rod is recommended for fishing lakers in deep water. I have light and medium jigging rods with mono line from 3-6# test on them. Would hate to lose a nice fish by being poorly equipped.

I fish trout in the winter in 40-50 feet. I use a 45inch thorne bros rod. I love it. It has lots of hook setting power with a soft tip to allow for the head shakes. I usually use rods that are atleast 36" in length.
