That 101/2 foot 1265 should be perfect for tossing swimmers Fishpart. I wouldn't call it overkill. If there are no waves or structure to deal with you probably don't need the long length but the action on the rod is perfect for small swimmers and if you do hook into Mobey #^&#^&#^&#^& its a good rod to fight it with.

You do have a point about the fish suppose to be transported intact. However , I've always seen fish cleaned on the way in on charter boats. The racks are tossed in or saved for lobster men. I guess this is like having to throw an undersized fish back even though you know it will die do to the way it was hooked , etc. If we let common sense rule , so few people have any , that things get out of hand. Anyway , we all agree the rack shouldn't be left on the beach to attract flies.
