Gsb1081L. 3 oz too much but will do mag darters to ss darters.
Gsb 1081M will handle 3 oz but too stiff for light stuff. Lots of power though.

I need to replace my Rainshadow 1088.... Let me know if you want to do a run down to CMS to look at/pick up a blank.

My original 1088 was out of Capesams personal stash. Best all around 9' I ever had. Backcast caught lure on a lobster trap/trash ball down on the reef last year and destroyed it... Pilot error.
