King fishing Kenai

Is there a rod !01/2 or 11 feet. I need 22 to 24 inches from butt to reel. Ineed fast action so it can be loaded with limited back cast. Distance is very important to me. I would like to throw 3 to 5 onces at least 100 yards. I will be throwing 65lb. braid with about a 20 lb. mono diameter. I need eyes that will stand up to the abuse. The rod should be rated for up to 40lb. This rod should be a conventional casting type. Is there any factory rod that comes close to this criteria? If not do you have any blanks that would work?


Hi Joe, You might check

Hi Joe,
You might check out the XS 11MHS (spinning) or MHC (casting) models in the Surf & Jetty series. Same rods also available in 10' in spin and cast. Tough rods to beat for what you're doing. The rods cast up to 6 ounces with no problem!
