340, I have tried one and they are pretty sweet!
However, with the new line of rods for 09 they have a XH in premier that is 8'6 rated for 4-10oz baits, that would not be a bad option either.

I've thrown their XXXH rod a few times, 8 foot pool cue. Absolutely FLINGS anything over 6-7 ounces without issue, your shoulder is likely the next weakest link...

The XXXH i'm referring to is rated for 8-40 ounces or something stupid like that. A mag dog feels like a teeny-tiny-little-itty-bitty toy with that rod.

the bait oz claims on most rods are irealivant(sp) I throw someheavy baits on my med hvy 7' 1oz-4oz scheels musky rod and it does just fine. I would think that you couls get a combo for 250-300 depends on the reel I use a 400 cardiff and that rod with 80pd PP and it costed me $240 I throw he11 hounds that are 6oz and its a work out but it works. I hope ya find a deal with this hardwater season in full swing good luck
