I'm with Beezer....an 1143 is just about the perfect combo rod. Great drifter and will keep line off the water for float fishing. My GL3 is really sensitive and the slower action makes it more fun to fight fish.
I haven't tried the Rainshadow version yet but if $ is not an issue, you can't go wrong the GL3 1143.
