The rod is light as a feather and feels like it's quality. Caught a lot of fish on it and no complaints as of yet. This is the second surf rod I own by TFO.

I own the 12 heavy rod rated for 4-10oz and intend to buy at least one more.

<span>Hi, I would recommend a Shimano Saragosa SW 8000 size Spinning Reel. However since it's currently sold out, I would also recommend a Shimano SPSW8000HGA Spheros SW A Spinning Reel. </span><a>https://www.tackledirect.com/shimano-spsw8000hga-spheros-s

I want to use the 11' medium light rod to throw top water lures for Stripers. What size Shimano Vanford and Van Staal reel would pair nicely with this rod for a light weight balanced rod reel combo?<br />

<font><span>Hi Tai, The Shimano Stradic will be light for the setup and wouldn't balance out the rod out and make the setup very tip heavy. We recommend the Shimano Saragosa 5000 or 6000 to help balance out the setup. Please let us know if there is anythi

I will be using this rod to throw top water plugs and 1-2oz bucktails. What size Shimano Stradic FL reel will pair with a 11' ML Tactical rod? Also, what size Van Staal VR reel will pair with the 11" ML rod?<br />

<span>Hi Tai, We recommend the 5000 size Shimano Stradic as being the most optimal choice of the stradics to balance the reel or the Van Staal VR125 to balance your setup the best.</span>

Would the Daiwa Saltist MQ 4000 be too small for the 106?

<span>Hi John, The Daiwa Saltist MQ 4000 would be a little too small for the TAC SUS 1064-2 10'6" model. This would be better suited for a surf rod between 7ft - 9ft maximum such as the TAC SUS 904-2 Tactical Surf Spinning Rod. </span><a>https://www.tackl
