    I believe a Tenryu Jig Zam JZ591B-1 or JZ591B-2 will be a fantastic match if your budget allows.

    Majorcraft Offblow OB-B57/2 or OB-B58/3 should also work great with your conquest. The spinning models have been quite popular for lite jigging. Quite value for money i would say.

    Honestly for light jigging any of those old school Daiwa Interline or Falcon/G.Loomis 8-14/10-17 BC rods should do just fine. I actually prefer them over current Japanese PE1-2 rods because they've got more backbone/lifting power.

    Funny you should ask

    Happened to pop into Deep Sea a few weeks back & I saw some there. The Interline is still one of my favorites for local bottom bashing.

    I think HockHeng and Changi Pro still has some super old school Team Daiwa X Interline rods. I think someone on FK was selling a Procaster Z interline not too long ago too. These are really nice for light jigging

    The one I am talking about is the Daiwa Sealine-X Interline, the one with the triangular hypalon or EVA foregrip. The blank is black in colour. If you can find one, the 6 1/2 footer rated 12-30 lbs (yes ... it is THAT old ... pre PE rating ), it would match the Conquest nicely. Like I said, Deepsea has / had a few brand new rods on display a few weeks back. Not too sure about the ratings though.

    From my previous experience, the Team Daiwa & the Procaster Z interline tend to set along the backbone after a while i.e. becomes slightly bent, if you know what I mean.
