Yup, 1201M is next. It will be NGC/hybrid with BSVLG's to reduce and transition into MN10's, in a NGC/hybrid type layout.... Once I figure out what I want to do with the handle and reel location.

The 120L is and will be my primary here in CT, but when the wind kicks up, especially in the fall migration I need something that can punch a cast better. Of course it will double for rock fields where I need to turn a fish quickly as well. Conceptually, I need something that will cover over the top side of the 1201L in ability to punch some weight and turn a fish. But since it isn't the norm. for me, I don't want the 11' for all its weight.

It must be rock hopping ready, and I will be going with a layout I know is up for the challenge with double foot guides.

I would consider re-wrapping both 120's iKR concept if double foot steel guides were offered. I do like what it does for the rod and tip weight.
