Good Rod for money, but a bit long for my liking. Try to stick to 5,5" or shorter!

Okuma are coming out with some reasonable gear these days.  I don't know of the rod nor reel, as they don't come into the radar of jig-proven tackle.  Since you have brought it, fish it and tell us what you think of it.
give it death!
