Why not both..or all three.The 1205 is stiff.The fastest action in the xra series.This along with braided line can also pull the hook on lots of fish.If i was gonna thro 3 oz habs needle's all night that would be a good choice.The L is to light in my opinion.a good bomber red fin rod asking it to much more is takin it to extremes.If u cut the tip down the rating does not go up on the high end only the low end in other words u can;t make a 2-4 rod 3-5 if u cut it it becomes 3-4.So the 120 1M seems to be one of the best rods for alot of applications.It'll tro bombers an red fins ok.Is a good soft action rod for eels.excells in plugs in the 2 0z range.like darters an metal lips..As far as being a good pencil rod it pales in comparison to the 1322 or the gsb 136 1m. simply by the nature of it being shorter.i've gone to 11 fter's 3 yrs ago an i haven't looked back.Yes at times like when in the water tryin to land a fish or on a rock they can be cumbersome.But they offer me the most bang for the buck I don't sacrifice distance.Ya the majority of fish are in close..But sometimes they are not...An the longer rod can be a GREAT advantage when tryin to land a fish in a mine field.
It is a little tough eelin, they tro em great but the added lenght can be cumbersome.I missed alot of hits with it...No one rod does it all good.I have gone thru them all.Including glass...If I had to pick one it would be a 120 1M.
