Thanks for so much feed back you guys!

If its(120M) wobbly after a cast, I would suggest the NGC type setup which features multiple smaller, lighter guides from the rod's midpoint out to the tip. It lightens and tightens up the rod's feel considerably. I call it the Numbskull setup jokingly because George suggested I try it, but it is a very good layout in all honesty. I build all my spinners this way now, at least until something better pops into Numby's head and he uses me as his rod wrapping guinea pig. Worth investigating. I don't build rods commercially, so I'm not trying to sell you anything besides a good idea I stole from someone else.
ProfessorM has a rod I built this way on a 120M blank as does Texican.
