Default The difference in cast range bettwen 8'6" - 9' and 10' rods

I am planning to buy a rod which I would be mostly using for rock
fishing, and from the wharf. 8'6" suits me the best however I would
like to do some surfcasting ocasionally. 9' and 10' rods are already
considered as surfcasting rods but wouldnt be as handy as 8'6". Can
anyone give me some idea what's the difference between those rods in
cast range. How far can I cast with those rods? Ofcourse I mean an
approx difference as I know some other factors eg line, wind, sinker
will influence cast distance.
Thanks for any help.
