Hi Wendy, if you are looking to get that extra 10 feet, you may wish to make changes in line or maybe go to a 10 foot rod, but not all the way to an 11. You maybe able to get extra distance with a different reel or even running a little extra line hanging from the end of the rod as this adds to the theoretical lenght of the rod.
If I recall, that rod you got from Steve was pretty sweet but there are a few options you can do. Do you remember the specs on the rod by chance? It was a custom rod so it might not be labled. Was this with the jigs used earlier in the spring time or with eels?
