Patrick,

Customer rods, multi-hundred dollar reels, superlines, etc etc don't make someone an instant good fisherman. Experience does and that takes time. Good equipment certainly can help improve the situation but without experience how can you say for sure exactly what you really need? Lots of things sound great on paper but in application don't hold up.

Rather than start measuring for a custom rod or worrying over the choice of whipelash/powerpro, get some time in the real surf. You'll learn more and spend less.
