Hey Jerry,
He has a map on his website; http://www.capecodtackle.com which has directions to the shop
Bob - for best casting efficiency at a reasonable price, your still looking at the Abus. Probably the cheapest distance caster is the 6500C4 plus upgrades like power handle and smoothies or the 6500TCST + smoothies. Other options are the Big Game and Mag Elite. I use my Calcutta 400 for eeling as I get bigger fish on eels and like the drags better (Note to pluggers :P , this is not to say that plugging gets small fish but just that I personally spend more time with eels come nightfishing). I honestly have never compared the 400 to a 6500 in a distance contest. With eels, extra casting efficiency might get you an extra three feet.
For plugging and eeling, I use a 9 foot Sabre rod and on occasion my 10 XRA1205 (Blem
)Lami . For anything lighter I'll use my 965SUR conventional Loomis, currently with a 5500C3 but soon with a C4 which has a little higher gearing that I'll use for Albies and Bones... As far as lures getting more "weighty" late in the season, I'm using similarly weighted plugs throughout the season. Not too much different. Some of the Canal guys may be more specialized or some location specific types but not me...
