Next time I head out, I'll pay some more attention to what the rod tip is doing.
I know some guys are using huge sticks out there, but what's the general consensus for the rods length and strength? Am on the right track using a 10' MH now and then building a 10'6" MH this winter?

I use a ten footer..A allstar 1209.they no longer make this blank..
Anthing longer that 10 ft and your gonna run out of room when you point the rod back to cast..
Lami makes a gsb122mh..or the 1266 MH arra..Are good choices..
