i agree 8 foot too long for a boat. typically japanese hire big charter boats so an 8 foot rod will not be a problem. the reason an eging rod is to long and light is so that you can feel a touch and its light enough not to pull the jigs barbs through the squid. id go for a good 7 foot rod plenty of them. i uses the yamashits 7.6 foot rod and its great. i swear by it. although i like the breaden rods and i think that will be my next squid rod...
anyone using the breaden ?? how is it??
