It got that bad Dave? The 1213 conventional you wrapped is pissa. Me likes a lot.

the 1213m is great as a casting rod in its stock length as it loads heavier plugs and eels perfectly. even if cut down a little it is still nice as a caster.

as a spinner, it may feel a little top heavy, thus the wobble after a cast. but, it is a tigher and more popwerful blank than the 1363m cut. either one makes for a nice, durable, rod in the rocks where an occasional bang against a rock will not hurt it.

Rod is not top heavy at all, in fact it is pretty well balanced, don't know what you're talking about with the wobble, casts perfectly for me...

the "tip heavy" is typically due to the guide selection, but it is also due to the beast - this blank is heavy as far as blanks go. some of the sb series blanks in the m power are usually a little tip heavy. this can sometime be compensated with where you place the reel. as for the wobble, that is part of the fun in having a very moderate to slow action rod and the weight of the hardware from the reel up. personally, i just deal with it as there is nothing better than having a glass rod i never need to worry about baby'ing when fishing.
