I fish with both the 1321 and the 1322 depending on the conditions and location for the evening. They are my two favorite surf rods I own out of many. The 1321 is lighter but will handle up to 3 oz without too much stress but it is the perfect rod for casting 1.5 oz plastic minnow type lures as well as 2 oz wood swimmers. This stick can whip any bass in a hurry. The 1322 is a bit heavier and longer and is what I call my big water stick. When it is blowing and you need to sail the BIG habs needle or a 4oz beachmaster, this is the right tool. It will cast a 1 oz lure just fine but if feels a bit overkill. I ended up getting both and pick my weapon prior to each trip. The 1322 will put the boots to a 40+ fish and have plenty to spare.
Mine are set up for spinning with a high quality braid friendly reels and fish 40# PP on the 1321 and 50# on the 1322. Casting disatance is excellent. The combo of an Arra stick with braid and a great reel is a very sweet fishing experience esp with a big fish on the other end.
You will love it take my word on it.
Good Luck.
PS Before purchasing them I emailed Ron Arra and asked a few questions, he responded promptly.
PSS If you don't make it yourself there are a few guys on this board that do some excellent work.
