I used my 1205 spinning with a 4500 saltiga more in the canal this year for jigging than my 1209 w/ em-pro. It is much nicer to cast and I love the action of the rod when fighting fish. I still have more confidence in the 1209 around the abutments, but that said, I haven't felt under-gunned in any way with the 1205. I throw up to 5 oz with it, although I often switch to the 1209 if the current is strong enough to warrant 5. Short answer based on what you wrote- yes it will be totally suitable.
