Confused

Just watched an old movie clip about surf casting and noticed the rods only had 2 guides and a tip. I am looking to either have my 11' Ron Arra XRA 1322-2 using a calcutta 700 conventional (using mono)built or if I have to build it myself. I wrapped a 10' one piece about 20yrs. ago and was going to do this rod but don't want to do it wrong. I was hoping to get Mike at M&D's to do it but I don't think he is taking rods right now. I plan on fishing with 3oz.+ plugs and may use it for eels. I also like jigging bucktails and shad leadhead combos. What would you use the rod for and how would you set it up? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
