Ive got a compact lighweight setup to cycle to fishing and I use 9 foot 2.75 dwarf rods
Paired with shimano 4000 baitrunners.
Im quite hefty and when I use them I feel like one those fat yanks catching Billy Bass with their tiny
Wand rods. For a month or two I only fished that local venue then finally had a couple of longer sessions
Elsewhere . Using my 12 foot Free Spirits and Big Pits was a joy.

I've just picked up 3 Avid Traction Pro 10 ' 3lb rods. First impression is very good, 1k weave, light, full size butt and a nice finish, and for 90 squid each not bad. Not out on the bank for another 10 days to give them a go unfortunately 😞

I have Avid traction pro 10ft in 3.5lb thryeyave a longer handel on them so feel like a normal rod can hit 100yards with them no problem, i have mine pared with emblem 35 5000 reels, i dont think i will ever go back to 12ft or 13ft unless i need a bigger chuck.
