i'm using the above mentioned rod for general beach fishing and i can tell you now that it is a crackin rod it has a good tip and gives great bite detection and is light...and if you need to blast a bait out this rod does the job no problem...i've the titanium matched to a diawa emblem s 6500 and an emblemZ 5500a and it does the job rightly.....its also a good rod for usin big long traces on surf beaches and you are able to keep the line outta the breakers if your fishin distance
