The SU 1209 is only good for jigging, or maybe weight and bait. It sucks as a plugging rod.
Don't get me wrong, it's a great jigging rod, but it's got a one track mind.
Believe it or not, it fishes and casts much better as a spinning rod. It's way to hard to load with less than 5 oz as a convenmtional. Guys use different mechanics when casting spinning--you can use more of a snap cast.
I should caution that my observations are based on the All Star 1209, but my understanding is that the SU and the All Star are virtually identical.
