Dave the 9'6" matches great with reels in the 4000/5000 size range. So around 12 to 15 oz, 14oz seems to be ideal.

I have a daiwa 3500 on mine, which is 13.5 oz, balances almost perfect. But probably put a spheros 4000 on it, as the daiwa is old and beat up.

The rod is light, blank is 4.2oz and finished rod is 7.8oz maybe, Billy D just built a custom one for a CSA member. I have his notes somewhere, ill double check the weight.

Not sure about the show, but sure we could meet up, maybe find some open water if possible
