Screw conventional,No range.An who needs the birds nests.I like to fish with a wind in my face.Ain't workin then.I have at least 20 conventional rods an I don't throw a plug wit any of them u wanna liveline fine, throw jigs fine, bait good but not plugs.leave that to ron arra.i think u have way more control with spinnig also a big fish comes in towards that big rock ur done also forget ten Ft. an go up with a 11.eiyther a gsb 132 or a Xra 132 2.so's u can reach the big boys.there will be times u wish u could cast 20 yds further.Why torture urself.I started usin a 11 ftr. 3 yrs ago an I'll never look back.I have a xra 132-1 thats a great rod throws bombers to 3 oz bottle plugs the sweet spot just over 2 oz. I lay off a bit wit the 3 oz.rs. I also have a gsb 132 1M thats a greak stick a little heavier castin range. but i wish i had the XRA132-2 I think i will get one soon hey Mike rap me one I'll be up there soon.the Arra's seem to be more parobolic have greater lure weight range an cast better.I seen the one mike rapped for the contest man that was a sweet rap.If U intend to stay wit the sissy 10 ft size I would say 1204 or 1205 bein as u already have one for lighter pluggage i don't like my 120m u can have it it seems to be in the middle of all my rods an gets the least amout of play time.Also I had a 132 1L an folded it in half castin a 2.5 needle one night. so forget that.So whataya gonna do.
