I like the G-LOOMIS that Jeff mentions (GL2 BBR 884). IMO, musky rods don't have the backbone to throw anything heavier than 4 ounces. I've got a Shimano Calcutta 400S baitcasting reel on it. The lack of a level-wind takes a little getting used to, but the lack of friction from the line guide increases my casting distance.
