Oh, you slipped that while I was posting. I'm not a fan of the 1141 rods, thou some guys love that action & take big fish on them as well.

As your looking for a fast action rod....I whould go for a 9' XST 1084 rated for 8-12 lb., if you want more power the 10-17 lb. XST 1085 blank will be out in July/Aug....
