[QUOTE=Pete F.;774465]There is a reason the GSB1201m has been around and loved for years. QUOTE]
Therein lies the problem. It is old technology, and I think it is heavy. The "price point" is what is keeping it around now. Arra is also considered old now IMO.
The big thing now is light and strong. really light. If you can, try before you buy and imagine fishing with it for hours. The new rods don't give you that cramp in your back/shoulder like the heavyweights do.
Take a look at the new technology, even the production stuff by loomis and st Croix and shimano.
PS...get a rod made just for braid... forget this combo stuff
