Any feedback on PD Black Diamond 77

Lenny Lim:
Thanks Aaron. That really helps as I figured the yamaga atlas might be too light for Oman. Furthermore, I m not big sized so a 7.7 ft rod certainly helps.

Most of chuggers I m using is only 130 - 170g.

Thanks again guys

Aaron Concord:
Chris,

Actually it was a cross wind of around 15-18knots!  It was a funny spot to fish on the day.

Just a good ole stubborn streak at the time and certainly, I was in much better shape too!

The Kevlar just seemed to make it load easy for a "heavy" rod and it slung a popper without the tendon-snap that the SP 78UHL and other heavy popping sticks I have owned needed to get distance.

I might add, the earlier attempts to get this sort of distance occured on Terra Firrma. 
It's a whole lot easier than in a rocking boat, though I found out not impossible!

Cheers,

Aaron.
