i use a 9ft rod and get great action. it can get tiring working the slug, especially with a 704 as your reel, but its usually worth the effort. Loomis 1084, allstar 1088, and that factory breakaway you sold me a couple yrs ago(that was my favorite slug-go stick) all work well. i like to hold the rod just above the reel seat and rest the butt against my forearm. this shortens up the length of the rod and gives you good leverage on the hook-set.

where i fish, the slug-go is really the only artificial that I am confident would entice a slob if i didn't have eels.
