Hi Brad,
I have one earmarked as well from Duncan for use in New Cal in Jan 09, ( Janelle is on notice to tell me when she sells one of two Fishhead has in stock) and am looking at PE 12 rod for some shallow lagoon fishing we will be doing with cup faced poppers, GT3's and I cups. I did fish PE 10 quite easily last time over a Fisherman GT Game RS, but I am a pretty big bloke so I think I should be right, plus I swing a paint brush for a living and practice on big kings in my down time...
It is an overkill and will be taxing there is no denying that, however having a UH PE 12 rod in the arsenal to share between 3 guys is a good option just in case things get nasty over there. They will look after the lighter outfits and I will be bringing over the big guns. It works out OK if you consistently fish with the same guys as you don't double up on the extra gear, so this suits me fine as I fish with the same core group of anglers.
Cheers
Stan
