I have been seeing a bunch near where I work but don't want to drive down there on weekdays
>>823163A lot of it depends where you are gonna be fishing from, and just preference as well. The surf fishing guys do 10' rods because they need to be able to cast a mile and don't have to worry about the tree branches overhead when fishing from the beach.
