Have three rods that I use with plastics//all for different cpnditions=====but I<m seldom fishing off shore///but do you need that super cast=====that 10/11 footer I have serious doubt, that will give you the desired action===It will work with Storm Shads =that are a basic cast & retreive style plastic// I really doubt if you can finess fish with that big a setup =even if its the whippy steelhead /////////////
