I have a GSB120L cut 3" at the tip and 3" at the base. I love that rod. It will throw a 6 inch bomber, a loaded redfin up to a 3oz 40 with relative ease. Also tosses a rigged or live eel well; and the whole time it has the ability to turn a fish in every instance I have come across. I plan on making another one this winter as a backup from the 120L blank.
I also built a couple 9' rods on the Lami GLB120-2MH blank. I didn't really get a chance to use them much in the surf this year, but did get to use them in the Housy in April and May. It threw bombers ok, sluggos and juniors slightly better. I didn't take any large fish on it but it seemed to have plenty of backbone.
