All Star 1265-2 Had mine built by Saltheart. Sweet spot is 2 oz. Maxes out around 3 oz though. Nice for popping pencils.

Was also known as the Spanish Buster when offered by Hatteras Outfitters

I gave my brother this rod when I got a 1205, but I loved the action on a St Croix Ben Doerr. It was not super fast but fished better than most rods I have tried. Rod is out of production and I wish I could find the same action.

X3 - Just got my 10-6 mojo - 2-6. Took it down to the MMA yesterday to toss some different plugs. I was able to throw a 5oz bucktail literally 2/3rds to the other side.

Plugs under an ounce were not so easy to toss but still about 40 yards.

That's with a vs 200 loaded with 40lb samurai braid. The reel doesn't balance out the rod well, so I added a 5oz weighted butt cap and it made a ton of difference.
