I would go with the 14ft or 12ft for starters. The 14 and 16's are much harder to handle than the 12's.

I've got 12s I've fished with for 5 years. I feel like I could handle 16s pretty easy. So would you say the c&c would be the middle action rod. With the bgjp being lighter action and the PST being heavier?
Bgjp is in between capps and psts.

The Ozark has more spine than the BGJP, about like the PST, but their tip is similar to the Capps or BGJP. The Ozarks are very user friendly for the novice or the more experienced angler. They are a great all around trolling pole and you can push or pull cranks with them also. I power troll jigs with my Ozarks too with a 2 or 3oz weight. Just My .02
My pst poles have been good on lite bite days

Well thanks for all the help guys. I think I'm going with the bgjp rods. Something in the middle. Seems to be what I'm after. Thanks for all the fast responses. First class group of guys. Much appreciated
