7' is about right for casting from a kayak I feel. I have used longer rods and they feel awkward. Shorter and your casting distance goes down a fair bit. Though if you are just dropping jigs that isn't an issue.

Also good if you want to go out on the day boats.

I think about all the other things you have to deal with when you have long rods along with just their intended use. The more functions you can get from a given setup on a kayak the better off in my book.
