Most rods come in a variety of how "fast" the tip is regardless of length

This is true. I have some 7'-6" rods that have loads of backbone, a lightnin' fast tip and light as a feather. Rod length has nothing to do with these specifications. A 15-25 line weight comes in all lengths and so does 8-17. "In all his years of fishing"......I would think W knew that.

A 6'6" may work better for you, but, I would think a 5'6" would work even better. It's not the action of the rod that matters.....the lure is.
