5 OZ plus a shad body and you need a lot of rod. I'm with Mike P , no way a 1267 will handle that. It will go to 4 with a curltail but pretty weak even at 5 with no tail.
For 5 plus a shad body almost everyone would use a one piece 1209. A century tip tornado light will hammer 5 plus the shad body and its two piece but you'll spend the long dollar. I think a Lami 1266 comes in two piece? That might handle it but again its expensive.
I think you need to think about taking the chance to cutting down a big meat stick typically used for tossing 8 and bait.
Smokey has used an allstar 1266 and it will handle 5 but again , not with the big shad body. That rod will handle 1 OZ more than the 1267. These are for allstarts , I don't know about the rainshadow line. Some say the SU line is the same as the allstars , some say its different.
