not sure i would go with the Arra. i have spoken to enough guys that prefer the 1201M over the 1205 for big stuff. the Arra's are more prone to breakage. also, the 1266 seemed a little light for BI. haven't fished with it, but i have felt it before. go with the 1201M. i am working on the 1321L cut down to 10', as well as the 1362M cut down to 10'. the 1201M has done everything i would ever ask of it out there, but i always need more toys...
