Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quality rod and good casting distance (10ft rod) Yes, the first eyelet is meant to be upside down. With that being said, man this rod really slings the bait a good distance from the surf and the metallic blue finish on the rod looks very clean too. I caught a 10+ catfish that put up a good fight just yesterday and the rod felt very strong throughout the fight. I never knew LL Bean made fishing gear but I’m certainly not disappointed with this rod!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amendment to review My earlier review contained a criticism that was INCORRECT. The rod DOES have the rod stats printed on it! I just missed them before. My bad.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Took a chance. Good gamble Took a chance on this. Wanted a 9 foot inshore rod. Couldn't find a Shimano in stock anywhere. Bean had this. I don't think of LL Bean as a fishing rod outfitter. @ the same time, I have never gotten anything from Bean that hasn't been top quality! So, I ordered this, set it up with a Shimano Ultegra 4000 reel. The rod performs very well. One "complaint". Bean should print the rod specs on the rod. It's action, weight ratings, line and lure limits. So far so good. Landed a midsize Shad on 1st time out. So, it's lucky too!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LL Bean 9 Ft Surf Rod. It is becoming the new Backbone of all of my other fishing rods. The ability to fight a Spanish on the pier is remarkable. Honestly, I wanted an LL Bean rod for years, but a little sceptical, but, after catching many Spanish Mackerel in the 2-3 pound range, I'm sorry I didn't buy on earlier. Your rod is as good as your LL Bean legacy. Fishing in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bean surf rod Great performance for the price, I put a 4000 size reel on it and found it was a little small in hindsight I would have got something bigger
