Not very familiar with the Ron arra line of rods. I would go with the Rainshadow 1209 or 1208 if you want lighter the experiences I have had with lamiglas rods and the canal have not been good in the past if you were fishing the rod with a conventional reel I would have to say go for it but I think with that reel for what you are gonna do with it you should go with the 1209 plus it is cheaper $267 @ cms

Hey Chris--you'll like it here

GQ Powers came by to say hello when I was volunteering at the Special Olympics in Hyannis.

I've been carrying the 3oz jig with me since I saw you. We'll run into each other soon.

Looking at the write up, seems like a couple of guys crossed but couldn't hook the other guy's line.

At least they could cast to stay warm. Most of what I was doing was standing and waiting. Some of those kids don't understand much more than "follow the man in the orange T-shirt" so I couldn't wear a rain jacket when I was escorting them to the starting line. Then, I had to wait until they finished their race, and then take them over to get their medals. Plus, they wanted the volunteers there by 8:45 and the games didn't get going till 11, so by the time the whole thing started we were standing in the cold and wind over 2 hours, doing basically nothing.

It still was a fun and rewarding thing to do.
