I dont do a tonnnn of surf fishing but my brother does and when I go with him (Virginia, NC, OBX) I just use one of his heavers but typically just use one of my bass setups to toss a spoon, soft plastic jig, mirrolure, etc. I ordered a Daiwa 23 BG 4000 and wanted something in the 7-8' range mayybbee over 8' that I could toss 1/2oz-ish lures and 1-2oz spoons with without worrying. I've been eyeing the new Daiwa inshore blacklines;

The Med/Fast says "UP" to 3.5oz but I cant find any feedback from customers since theyre new. At that price point does that seem like a good rod, or for $250 should I be looking elsewhere? Also not opposed to spending less but it kind of checked all the boxes for me
