The specs sound ideal.... Only thing missing in MHO is a longer fore grip. It's important to get a good lift and keep constant pressure when you hook up to keep the fish from going back in the wreck and keep him on the hook. A longer fore grip helps since you can place your hand way out in front of the reel and get better leverage and keep a good bend in the pole throughout the fight.

It's the same reason offshore jigging rods come equipped with longer fore grips.
