The GSB1201L (1 piece) is sweet, dunno about the 2 pc model, but I have the 1 pc and it's great for poppers and eels. I'm sure alot of guys would agree that it's a great blank.
Allstar 1265/2 great for 1 to 3 OZ. 2 pieces. Nice action for pencil poppers , be sure to wring ferrel together well oe whipping the tip for pencil poppers will be trouble for a two piecer. No problem if you put the two halfs together properly.
