At 7'4", the extra length provides more tip-speed so that you can make a positive, long-distance cast and hookset. A medium-power spinning rod also designed to fish weightless plastics like the Zoom Super Fluke, but with the additional four inches, you gain extended casting distance which can be especially important when you're fishing in clear water where you need to stay back off the fish. Surprisingly powerful, it's a wonderful, all-around inshore spinning rod that opens up a lot of light-duty saltwater possibilities.
