Longer rod? My rod is 7' 10" medium action 10-20 lb rating.

Lighter line? I typically use #12 - #15 lb test line. If you prefer braid, maybe 35 lb braid? I don't use braid, just a good quality mono is good for me.

Good luck!
i should get a new rod yeah?! I current rod is 6'8 medium action. Is there any rod you prefer? i was thinking on buying a phenix x-12. How far can you throw your LC's??
