I don't know depends on the builder I guess the 7'6" is nice but the extra length of the 8 is better those bigger jigs in my opinion. I also have the 7'6" in both models and the mojo 7'6" the 8 premier glass us the rod you want. The new 8'6" may not be a bad idea to check out either

If your going to use it for both jigging and bait, go for the St Croix Musky Premier XXXH 8' it holds up top 30oz. Great overall for Cod fishing. Goes for about $210.

If you want to go custom, I'm pretty sure if you give one of our Rod making sponsors a call, they probably have some already built. Kevin Bogan and Garone Customs, I would give them a call to see what they have available. Their under the "Tackle & Bait Shops" up on top of the screen.

Lots of custom options, but with the time until your trip it probably takes that route out of the equation. I personally like something moderate fast 8' with a long butt for swinging jigs all day. If you have any long tuna jig rods or tilefish rods they will probably handle the duty. If you have any other questions feel free to give me a call.
