A quote below from the Century thread earlier...you sure you need the 1328? It took me a little bit to get used to , you know you were next to me most of the time...I still think you should try mine before commiting to the 1328, it might be too much for your back/neck..MikeP posted in the Century thread a while ago,heres his opinion of the 1327
"I can tell you that the 11' HJ 1327 tosses and lifts a 3 oz head and Sluggo as easily as any rod that I've ever fished. It's not "just" a plugging rod. IMO it's a very versatile Canal tool. I think it can easily handle another ounce or two. But on these off tides, 3 oz is all I need to stay down."

I read that post, the issue is not tossing the weight because i use a 2-5 mojo now and i make a 4oz disappear, that is not the issue. I want more backbone on the jig and hookset, to pull the fish out of that deep water. Im really thinking the 1328 is probably going to be the right rod, and the 1261MH is a close second. I am weighing the advantages/disadvantages of each vs cost at this point.

You could probably trim a longer butt down an inch or two without affecting action too much I would think...

I have consided taking a 132 1M and taking some off the top, i have heard of people doing that makes a really nice stick as well, advantage is 1 piece so thinner lighter, but i feel it devalues the blank. I already had one person wrap a rod and cut 6 off the butt with out my permission, then i needed to take the rod to CMS for a save, they did a nice job fixing it but the blank looks like heck.
