hey been fishing for some years now have slowly been upgraded my gear this year i want the best stuff i can get, which surf rod do you use and which size VS would you use with it, I fish alot of plugs and also you eels. i just caught my first thirty pound plus fish from the shore and my rod didnt have enough backbone i couldn't move her. I've caught a lot of fish in the twenties and had no prob but i think i need to be prepared for the big girls. Any advice, thanks
