What are the benefits of using the 7 foot rod over the others?

I like the way 7 foot rods cast, if I want to cover a lot of water in a
hurry, I can really launch a spinnerbait waaaaay out there. I also believe
that because the "swing radius" is larger, that you're moving more line on a
hookset, thus getting better hooksets. I also like the way I can control a
fish on a longer rod.

But much of this is subjective and personal preference/beliefs. That's why
I gave you three to choose from. Head to your closest St. Croix dealer and
check them out for yourself. YOU decide which on you prefer, afterall,
you're footing the bill.
