I am in Florida after ICAST show to test new Black Hole surf rods with Mike Basnite.
He cast about 700' using 12'  prototype Black Hole Cape Cod Surf II Heavy rod with 8 oz sinker. 
He even cast over 400' with light 1 1/2 oz - 2 oz wooden plug with the rod.
He said the rod is very versatile to cast 12 - 14 oz sinker as well as to cast 2 - 3 oz lures.

:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

Here is a video of casting 1.9 oz lure. You hear screaming sound of the reel. :)
