#8683, "RE: Surf rods -- Does Size Matter ;-)"

I don't think you have a problem with your seven footer. I think the problem may just be a matter of getting the fish in the mood. I started with a 6' then switched to a 7' and just in the last couple of weeks, I switched again to a 9'. There wasn't that big of a difference. It really did shoot the grub out there but all the bites came within casting distance of even the 6' rod! Like Fongster says, it really is about keeping the line above the breakers. That's the only clear advantage. Believe me. I had a couple of friends with me fishing my two 7' rods and they both smoked me! They each had like 8 or 9 and I only had a couple.
It just sounds like a classic case of fishing instead of catching. Sometimes we get um and others we don't. Just keep on keepin on! You'll find the fish again soon!
