I do make a Junior at 6 1/2" 2 1/2 oz. but in keeping with the mindset of "Big Plugs" I use it in freshwater. I have two spinning outfits that I throw the big Pikes with. My favorite is a custom graphite 10' from the 80's that use to be my eeling outfit so it has some feel to it. I am getting it refinished and just found out the blank is a 1321m. It throws the Giants and the Divers (4oz to 61/2 oz) just fine and I can even lob the Trollers (71/2oz to 8 1/2oz) with it. I have a VS 250 on it. I love that rod!! The other outfit is a 11 1/2'
lami that will throw a small car, I can lay into the Trollers with that one, have an old Crack 300 on that one. When I came into surfcasting in the early 80's everybody used big rods.
