Can't go wrong with any of the reels mentioned, but I think a 6500 is too small a reel for a rod as powerful as a Lami 120 1m. Would do better on a 1L. The calcutta is equally small, but a stronger reel (that hates sand). The 7000 is better matched in the balls dept for the power of the rod, but the 7000 weighs more than I like. I've been very happy with Newells, probably a 229 or 235 for that size rod. Still, if you're unsure, the calcutta 400 is a very versatile reel to own, and you'd find something else to do with it if you eventually decide it is too small for the rod in question.
