I think the big difference i in action. The Loomis rods are very fast action while the Lami is more moderate.
I have fished a Loomis 1266 (custom , not factory) for about8 years now. Nice rod. Hammers stuff around 3 OZ.
there's a foot and a half difference between the two rods you mentioned. That's a big difference so you really need to better define what you are looking for.
Allstar1088 is a very nice solution to what you mention. You are looking at about $230 for one custom made. Warrantee issue is that should it break , Allstar may not have a resplacement (not that they are reluctant to honor the warrrantee , they simply may not have any) and you'll have to work out some sort of comparable replacement deal.
