Gomoku black with a 4-5000 Shimano reel would be perfect for you. Definitely manages 200gm but does fold a bit. Beautiful in hand and really suits the 60-120gm range.

If you are using heavier jigs more than light ones I too have a deep jig 200 which I pair with an 8k gosa. Does the 200gm jigs nicely.

I'm a huge fan of the Wilson Venom Deep Jig rods, have both the 250 and the 350 and feel awesome when buckled over :thumbsup:
