If youre trolling for mackerel with a rod and want to minimise snags, just forget about the mackerel and put on a Fiiish Minnow in the offshore size so it sinks down its weedless so you wont get as many snags

Swing the rod sideways and release the line when the rod is parallel to the water

Take, for example, a popular FS rod (5-40g 8ft) weight 190g then add a popular 3500 reel at 389g total 579g or 20.5 oz

I completely agree with everything you have said

Powerful rod w/ a parabolic action, would be great in a boat for the hex hatch or fishing out West on big water, or a light steelhead rod
