I'll throw in my 2 cents...
Regardless of what kind of coin you want to spend, I'd suggest the STR1025c. 8.5' in length, med-heavy action, and a great all-around rod for both steelies and Chinook. The IMX is the best drift rod on the market right now, and has been for a decade. It will provide superb bottom sensetivity with anywhere from an inch, to 8", of 1/4" lead, and power enough to handle most Idaho salmon, unless you're having to make a "stand" on them in real heavy water.
If you can afford it the IMX is the best, with the GL3 not far behind. They're spendy, but that old adage of, "you get what you pay for..." holds very true on drift rods.
