KEN,

   I'd strongly recommend you go with the SAGE RPL+ for your Ocean stick, it's what I use to cast that 250 grain, 26 ft. intergrated shooting head & intermidiate running line from RIO & it handles it wonderfully!!!!. I can cast all day (damn near, anyhow) into the Pacific Coast surf & not notice any pain in my arm or wrist. Go for the SAGE, 9 ft. is what you want for an overall Ocean rod. Did you locate any of those Books I mentioned sometime back???

I've asked part of this question before -- but I'd like to hear if anyone else has an opinion.
 
I need a good fast rod -- one that I can use in saltwater too -- but I don't want to pay a fortune.
 
Here are the options I've found so far -- I'd appreciate any opinions on them.
 
An almost new Sage RPL+ 8wt.  $250.
 
A new Diamondback Saltwater Series 8wt.  $200.
 
A new St Croix Legend Ultra 8wt. $270.
 
The Diamondback and Sage are 9ft and the St Croix is 9'9".
 
I have a Sge VPS -- but I find it isn't fast enough -- especially in saltwater.
 
Any thoughts -- suggestions?
