Thanks Agro. I hear ya, I've heard guys argue either way on this, some like the L and some like the M. Truth is, I stumbled on to a 120 1M blank at a pretty good price, so I'm using that. Also, I had an L blank a few yrs ago and didn't love it. A buddy of mine has an L built to the Skinner Montauk Eel Rod specs, which I'm interested to try this summer when we go eeling together.
Also, I like the idea that I can carry a few big plugs with me and some small (3/4 oz) bucktails for when I'm fishing some certain areas where its handy to have both. I have two specific spots that I think this rod is going to get the most use in and for both of them the versatility is a key thing to have. The L wouldn't be able to handle some of the bigger plugs I'd want to throw (4oz Pikes).
