I'm guessing one of the old Tournament Pros (I think that is what it was called). Doesn't have the right reel seat for the L&T.

I would guess Light and Tough Worm/Jig variant as well.

Rod is a light and tough 7' medium fast... cant remember the model #... reel is alphas with pixy spool... i think the line is 8 pound test but not sure and dont know the brand since i just transfered it from my px-r that i also just picked up a few weeks ago... the lure was the last shakey head jig i had from a kit i had bought from bps a few years ago... i'll post another pic of it when im home....its the football style with the screw loc which was useless since the only finesse worms i had were all elaztech from z man i used there watermelon red flake 7" but cut an inch off it because i missed the first 2 bites and on the second one actually saw the jig come out of the water before the bass let go of the tail...lol you guys ever stretch a 7" elaztech worm all the way out...im prety sure its close to 4ft... i only missed a few hits after i cut it down and ended up catching 10 bass total which for me in 40 degree water is awsome...
