I use an 8'-3" steelhead rod, it was a store bought rod I tore apart and re-guided years ago, so I don't remember who made it, Shakespere I think. Handles 1/4-1 oz and casts very well. I run 12 lb BigGame on my venerable 710Z. Bombproof.
I've been thinking of building a new spinner-(like you, I use a flyrod mostly) and was looking at a Batson 1084F, has about the same specs as what I use(occasionally) now
