The 6000 will do the job but you will do well with the 5500 or is it 5000 also.

I used my ABF-65 for both deep sea and surf fishing. I have used it for 2 years now and it has performed perfectly. The bait feeder option allows you to lower your line with a heavy weight without getting a backlash. The ABF-90 should have plenty of line capacity to catch all but the biggest of fish.

I bought this pole because it packs down to a small size for surf fishing in the ocean for perch and corbina.I bought the largest one they make which is over 9 feet. it's got some backbone to it and can fling a 2 ounce weight really far.if you're looking to catch really big fish go to a one piece pole. I don't see any problems catching a 10 or 20 pound fish with it though.

There are many rod of this length. Both fresh and saltwater. My serf rods of choice are between 9 and 11 ft.I love Ugly sticks because you can use light to heavy test line and the fight is the same. If you go tall thenget something as light as you can.

I do not fish for crappie so cannot respond. I fish for salmon using the trolling method and a down rigger. The size of these fish vary from 8 pounds to over 20 pounds and they are real fighters, love to run on you especially once they are on the surface. I have two Shimano rods, 9 feet and 9.5 feet. I use both of these while fishing in the San Juan Islands and Strait of Juan de Fuca in Washington State. I totally trust both of these rods as they respond perfectly from the first bite while in the rod holder to the actual netting of the fish. I fish solo most of the time and need a rod that will respond to support my individual effort.

Hi, the Ozoboard is a great cross over board - you should get a 9'6 if you are going to do SUP and you can still use it as a surfboard as well. Regards Jean jean

I think its a 5 weight rod , I have caught 16"and 18" Trout ,I don't think I would like to catch anything much larger on this rod, I have caught larger but not to often, if I was going surf fishing I think I would want a little larger rod like a 8 or 9 weight , then again it would depend on what was running . Hope this helps.

I use Power Pro Braided, It's smaller in Diameter and the 50lb test is great for Striper and Muskie. Don't forget a metal lead if your thinking about toothed fish though.

Go to Shakespeare's web site and browse their fishing rods, if it's saltwater or fresh water, a couple to check are bws1100 7'0" is saltwater and spl1100 7'0" which is freshwater, I have both and like them. There are others that may be what your looking for.

I ordered the 6'6" one (BWSJL220066) and the guides on it are for spinning reels. Also see this link: http://www.shakespeare-fishing.com/Ugly-Stik%C2%AE-Tiger%E2%84%A2-Jigging-Rod/1292170,default,pd.html#prefn1=ZZRLN&prefv1;=6%2525273%252522&start;=1

I don't see a problem but okiaya also has 30-80 rod, the same size but stiffer. The choice would really be determined by the targeted fish. If you are going for huge makos, marlin or big tuna I would use the 30-80 but for fish under 120 # I like the 30-50.

I agree with David K. That at 10 ft or more this rod is built for casting in the surf and is great at that. Although it might be okay, I think a trolling rod should be shorter with stiffer action, but definitely not a Pros or vastly experienced persons opinion

I believe there is a Scotty Baitcaster Rod Holder that can be used with the SE-9, although I'm not sure which model, since we don't carry the product line.

yep, the outside diameter is perfect, now check the track for the rollers and if it is 9" you are set. good luck.
