What rod for Abu 6501?

Gonna get the hang of this yet, so.... what rod do I look at for the his would be for beach and rocks, plugs, tins, etc. from 3/4 to 2.5 oz. maybe some eels? Not a ditch stick. My go to set up has been a Saltheart AllStar 1265-2 with an Okuma Epixor high speed 50. I was thinking 9 footer? I have to be ready for when we do get that casting clinic scheduled.

6501 is the just the lefty version of the 6500. Has 20lb BG on it now, is that what I should practice/learn with when I get comfortable? Could I/should I consider braid, which I like?

Thanks
