is this going to be a schoolie rod? seems pretty light, but all depends what you are doing with it..

You should also look at the G-loomis surf rods.

Thanks for the replies thus far. It's for schoolie to just over keeper size fish, although should a cow come along, it should be able to handle it too. I already have a cow rod. The gLoomis were a little more money than I was planning on spending. The rods I listed are $110- $150. Let me know what you think.

Keep in mind that the Loomis has a guarantee that is tops in the business.I've broken some that were replaced,no questions asked.

I have that rod in a 7 foot and a 8 1/2. Both are 1/2 -2, 10-17 line and have handled everything to date with no problems. I have a 360 on the 7' and a 460 on the other. Could not be happier!

I forgot to mention they are St. Croix's

Good information. Thanks.
Does anyone know how the Avid might stack up against St. Croix or gLoomis?
