Scott: What I have wished for would be a THREE piece travel rod about 7-feet long, about the right size for a 20,000 size reel and maybe 50 or 60 pound line. I would not mind it's being pretty heavy as hell, as I think that would be a necessity for a rod like that to handle line of that size, and I would doubt that even if that were possible, you could never get one that would handle 80 pound line.
