Ive always thrown jigs with my 40 lb bait stick but now i want to get a rod just for tossing surface and maybe a small yo yo.
I was thinking 90J or 100J and im going to go buy the blank soon so I want to hear some opinions.

if u havent fished it then personally dont get it, i owned one, now i just fish the ulua 93h, and my friend has the 100j and the full length ulua.... if u havent seriously fishd the surface ion i think u need a more forgiving stick... 800m, 900m, 90j is a grreat rod......find someone with the 100j and fish it before a big purchase like that

i fished surface iron on my bait stick on my last trip and i was having to put so much effort into it to get short casts when people around me with the LONG jig sticks were barely flining them and launching them almost twice the distance i was throwing mine

but its also not all about the cast its about the flex in the rod, the hookset in the fish, the pullin power, its a very whippy rod as opposed to my ulua which is quite stiff, u need to fish a few rods before you decide, im sure someone on her would let you borrow a stick, or fish you with you ya kno

Why not settle for something in between? 100J and chop 6in off the top. Loads up real nice (especially for bigger jigs such as the 7X) and you can still launch it a mile.

how much heavier is a 100j than a 900h
is the casting distane much further with the 100j
i keep hearing from some people that the 100J's are outdated equipment so its discouraging me....
