You can make it work with that stick. Back in the days before we had so many choices, we pretty much threw everything with that same blank. Had no problems and caught plenty of big fish. Although I think at the time in the mid 1970's the blank had a different model number. I still have one of those rods with about a foot or so cut off the butt. It still works but is heavy compared to what other options we have today.

You can throw on a Penn 704, 6500 or anything of similar size and catch with no problem.
