I think the 1205 would be good for eels. I fish one at the canal , it will handle heavy but also does 2 nd 3 and that's about eel weight. For eels not in a current , best rods are the arras 1322 , 1204 -----, Allstar 1145 , 1265 , 1087 -----Lami GSB 1020 1L and 1081L(depending on eels size but good for all but the biggest) .
In a current I would use a Loomis 1266 , Arra 1205 or Allstar1088.
A think the new Ziplex 11 footer would be killer too. For length , I like longer on open beaches like the 10 to 11 footers. around rocks I like 9 to 10 feet.
Anyway , after all that , i think best all around is an Allstar 1145 despite it being 2 piece.
