I used an Abu 6500 pro rocket and a Lami 9 ft- xs-91-mhc all season(08), and caught fish to nearly 40 pounds on it. Light weight outfit that casts great and reel has a great drag. I primarily used live eels, rigged eel and plugs to 31/2 oz. Very little maintaince after 60 trips with it, but outfit is pricey, $200 for rod and $230.00 for the reel. I would recommend it to anyone fishing the surf. OH, BTW, I used 25 pond test Ande back country.
