All my boat rods are 7 footers, I fluke, bass, scup, tog, cod,sea bass I would not go any longer, especially in a small boat.
Its tuff to have to find a place for a long rod in a short boat just to get the fish to the side.
There are a lot of nice rods in the 7 foot range. I have a great ugly stick that is a great match to a Penn 4500.
