lol, I should have mentioned that I don't want to spend $700 bucks on a rod of this nature.
Hoping to get something of great quality well under $300.

Daiwa lateo pirates are
Daiwa lateo pirates are great for 11ft but I mostly use 7ft for throwing lures and have a Simmons sds802 that is amazing and rated to cast much more and run up to 30lb but is very soft and flexes very well with 20lb and 30-60g lures I normaly throw
always looking for a new challenge!!

Have a look at the 9ft 8-15lb
Have a look at the 9ft 8-15lb Samaki Allure (Allure SA-902SM) if you like to fish light, the 10ft 12-25lb Samaki Allure (Allure SA-1002SH) if you want to go a bit heavier. Both perform as well as rods twice the price but come in under $150ea. The Starlo Classix 902 Shorespin (9ft 8-15kg) is also a very good rod for around the $100 mark.
Just because I smile & nod does not mean I believe the crap coming out of your mouth.
All people have the right to stupidity but some abuse the privilege.

Daiwa Seajigger
Check out the Seajigger 315........ Matched to a 3000-4000 size Daiwa reel it makes for an awesome combo. Reasonably priced to at around $250.
Casting distance from this thing with a 20-50 gram lure is awesome.

Also
the Daiwa Sensor Surf is a great range of rods too.
I've had a 10ft version for a year and can't fault it, casts lures in the 20-75g range a mile
