Won't argue about the bait outfits an distance. Yrs back I about emptied a squidder with 25 lb andy an 8 oz sinker an a full gale blastin over my shoulders an a small bait rigged Hatteras style.This 13 1/2 ft rod was not nor is it now a rod I would ever fish with plugs for a day.I don't think bait rod against pluggin rods is a fair comparisson for the question of factuall distance of casting ability.A 3 to 5 oz rated rod isn't gonna cast a 6 to 8 oz sinker an bait very far.Nor will a 10 oz plus rated rod cast a 2 to 4 oz pencil or bottle popper all that far.
