You're looking at apples and oranges a little with those rods.

The 1209 is the meanest 10' out there, and THE jigging rod for the canal. It's not a plug rod, it's heavy current and big scary jigs. The greek brothers use them to plug with dogfights...but they're crazy

...they skate 25# fish with them.

The 1328 is a rod that you can plug and jig with and will do 5oz and a tail or a 6oz Stick Shadd, while still letting you throw an SP or a Redfin or huck a 3oz pencil.

If you want a 10', look at the Zipplex Sea Raider II, it'll do what the 1328 will without having to cut a foot off. They're hard to find, but they're excellent rods for the canal. Big Dave loves this rod for the canal as well.
