Eben, i have that in both spinning and conventional that i built. i hardly touch the 1208's anymore. the spinner has a good coating of dust on it now, and the conventional only sees time jigging the channel. it is a good blank, but not as versatile, in my opinion, as the 1201M. it is a very fast blank. i prefer a much more moderate action. it will, however, send a 3 ounce plug to the horizon!
