If you need bent butts, a good place is pinnacle marine outfitters on ebay. I bought two short #2 bents for $45ea (new in the wrapper) made by Pacific Bay.
the site is trollinggear.com, or you can email pinnaclemarine@cableone.net

I looked everywhere, and the price can't be beat

I looked at the Daiwa Dendoh Saltiga deep drop rod for $149. Part# SA-B 56MHF-DD

I think it only comes with a long bent butt. I thought about buying one and then paying the $100 for a new short bent butt.

Total would be about $275 plus shipping. That's about $100 less than anything I found by Chaos, Crowder, J&M Tackle, etc .etc.

Don't know why a deep drop rod wouldn't work for trolling and swords.
