I love the slow action of this rod, but need just a little more power to cast. Will a shorter rod also give more backbone power?
Rod would be built conventional, for large eels.

Krispy,
Regardless of what people tell you here or elsewhere, cutting the tip off a rod usually F#$$s the rod up. Cutting from the butt is one thing, but the tip is usually recipe for trouble. This winter, build the 1205 ron arra, and you will be very happy with it for eels. I have one built for spinning and one conventional like we talked about. Its all I use now. Wait to see if we even have eels first. No eels next year=1088 0r 1208 spinning for pluggos or sluggos.
