Hi, Guys:

I've been lusting after one of the 8.5 ft. OTI Tuna Sniper Popping Rods, but I have not physically seen or held one. There is something that is not clear in the description: I'm sorta-kinda reading that it's a two piece rod, but I'm unclear. My concern is that I need something that would fit into a rod case along with my other 7 ft. rods. Will this rod do this?

If my target species is yft in GOM, will this be a suitable rod for throwing poppers? Or is there another rod that you would recommend? The goal is to be able to toss the poppers a long way out.

Thx.
P. F.

these are about 6' OAL in their case.
just a little longer than the jigging rods. View attachment 8023

they cast VERY well.

It is 2 piece, but not like a freshwater rod. It has a butt joint instead of a spigot joint in the middle. Like Paul said the rod is 6ft and the handle is 33 inches combined you get the 8.5 ft length.

Oh yea the thing will cast a mile too
