Wow...that's light! With all of the run n gun I do in spring, fall and summer I might have to check this 7'7 out. Thx roger!

I've been playing around with the 7'1L, thing weighs 2.7oz lol. Weird reel seat that is not uncomfortable, and the lure ratings are overstated. the 7'1L is rated to 3/8 but it's more a 1/16 - 1/4oz rod. I'd bet the 7'7 medium is probably a great 1/8 - 1/2 oz launcher...as long as you can get used to the reel seat.

Pair that up with a 2500/3k Tatula LT and you're looking at a combo under 10oz...
