I had a 1205 a couple of years ago, but sold it to fund another rod. Big mistake! It was a little heavier than I liked, but was the best overall plugging rod that I've fished. I really am leaning toward that rod if I can lighten up some.
Interesting on the GSB thrown into the mix. I have a couple of 9 ftr's (1081m&l)and absolutely love them both. I take the L to places and conditions that are way beyond its limits, but it still performs well. I just love that rod. Not sure why I hadn't thought of the 1201, but will give it some consideration. It would definitely handle what I plan on throwing, as I only jig as the tide begins to turn, and not at full run as I just suck at it! It will be mostly a pencil popper, swimmer, Sebile and SP rod.
Thanks for the responses guys, I appreciate your input!
