should i go built or should i have it built? .anybody know a great rod builder, that wouldn't mind working with a greenhorn? thanks again.....

oh one more thing, it needs to be braid friendly......

Lami SB 121 3M-Fiberglass, 10', 1 piece, 4-6 ozs

Lami GSB 120 1M-Graphite, 10', 1 piece, 2-8 ozs.

Lami GSB 120 1L-Graphite, 10', 1 piece, 1-5 ozs.

Check out the Loomis SUR1266 at Saltwater edge. Very versatile rod, its a two piece though

The lure ratings that F-18 has posted are out of the Lamiglas catalog.
They seem to have a problem with rating their blanks.They are from Washington State an I would bet 8 oz of lead is lighter there.
U give me a 120 1M an a 6 oz jig an after one night I'm giving u back a 2 pc rod..
U can whip bombers out there with it.I would say the sweet spot is 2 oz.
For the area's U posted the 120 1M is the rod I use.
Actually I have the factory model..101MXS I think..
I can't tell the difference..Between the factory an a custom..

NIB is correct, Lami does overrate a bit.

hey guys thanks alot, looks like the 120 1M might be the stick to go with, now is this a factory stick or do is it one that needs to be custom built?

sorry again for the silly questions....
