1321-M is where its at for a big stick. I throw big eels, big plugs, pencils, 5 oz sluggos, 9" wildeyes with mine. You get major distance with this blank and you can't break them. I'm a huge fan of the softer style blanks esp for eeling. With that fast action blanks, braid and a tight drag you'll pop fish off from time to time if theyre poorly hooked. Same thing for plugging. The canal is different as far as popping off fish as you need a good hookup to begin with to land a fish during a running tide.

Might not be the best rod for jigging and turning fish, but once you get the feel of how to lean in to a fish with it, its very powerful. My only complaint is its 11', so you loose ease of control and fatigue easier with it. The good thing is 11' makes jigging easier and you get better hooksets as an 11' takes up more line than a 10.

What exactly are you going to use it for?
