glass?
remember it's heavy
the lami 1203m I think is a pissa rod for whipping fish on a jig in the canal, a bit heavy for me so I stick with the 1209
IMO the saltiga 6000 GT is the best spinning reel for the canal, higher speed retrieve than most and killer drag.
this fall, try a 5-6 oz ball jig, bare with no hair, no pork and no need for paint even. jig that at night reaching the fish, they will chow that lead on a fast current.

you may not know Keith either, he logs in some serious time there though.
