New jigging setup

So I had a go at my mates new saltiga/talica (overhead) combo and it was amazing.  Have been daydreaming a fair bit since then and now I'm window shopping/tyre kicking for a new O/H jigging setup for around $500-600.  Have found a few setups (Daiwa saltist LD plus about 3 varieties of Daiwa rods) but was wondering if anyone had some other (non-Daiwa) suggestions.  Will be using jigs mainly around 80-120 grams for demersals.

Have a look at the Jignessis rods. They're absolutely killer mate, I've got two of them both from Oceanside. 

I'm running a Torsa 20 on the pe3-6 overhead and a pe1-3 with a Twinpower 5000 as a spin. Deadly!!

 For those jig weights you'd

 For those jig weights you'd be looking at PE2 which will suit the Torium 16 suggestion perfectly. The Torium is also star drag unlike the Talica's lever drag, this allows for a faster transition from free spool to strike drag in case you get hit on the drop.

From there the rod is your choice
