Take a look at Okuma's C3 concept rod paired with the Okuma Trio reel. I have this setup and i love it for throwing my wacky rig. I spooled it with 8lb fluorocarbon line and it is now one of my fave setups. I really like Powell rods as well. Take a look at both of these and you will see that they will fit into your price range at about $220.00 for rod and reel.

Thanks for the input and i forgot, i do alot of wacky rigging with a senko, soft plastic fishing, and jigs if that helps narrow down what pole and reels would be good.

just a tip you dont have to spend 200 or even 300 dollers to get a good rod and a good reel!!! every one that owns a 2 300 doller rod and reel will say otherwise because they have to justify why they spent that much!!! well i just spent 60 bucks on a rod and reel its a pflueger and it is just as good if not better than say a st croix or a lamiglass ect!!! i had a lamiglass and well they cost way to much ive had much better for much less..... heck you can get a really nice setup for 100 bucks... just my input no need to spend to much...
