I had and fished a 126 for 4 or 5 years. But like the all star 1209 much better for jigging. the 126 will handle these weights nicely but doesn't like 6 oz the way the 1209 does. Some days when it is really ripping 6 is needed to get down quickly. As stated above the 126 is more parabolic and not as fast as the 1209. With the faster tip I loose fewer jigs than I did fishing the 126. Nothing against the Lami it is a great stick.
