Patrick, you really dont need a wagon to tow all that stuff around. I drive a pick-up truck with a rod rack in the bed. If I drive out on the beach on the cape, I'll take a bunch of rods, but most of the time I fish places where you cant drive on the beach. I only take one rod with me if I have to leave the truck. This forces me to consolidate my gear. The only thing I have in my hand is my rod when I walk out on the beach. If Im eel fishing, I'll have a jug of eels and a butt pack or if Im plugging, I'll have a plug bag and a butt pack. I have a feeling that wagon would be full of all sorts of unneccessary junk. Choose your most versatile rod, which in my mind is a 9 ft graphite and take that. If you're after big fish, then concentrate on fishing for big bass and dont waste your time with schoolies and light tackle. If you're in the mood to mess with schoolies, take the 8 footer. You should always have a plan. The great thing about a 9 ft rod is you can handle a big fish, but still pass the time with schoolies if thats all that your long walk produces. Dont disgrace your first 35 pounder by towing it down the street in a radio flyer.
