OK, that makes sense. So far I've been laboring under the "lighter is better" philosophy for reels, especially when matching to the super lightweight XUL rods. Pairing the heavier Legalis LT2000s-p (at 6.2oz., vs 5-5.5 for most of my others) on the TCB makes for a decent balance...despite the long handle.

With that said, I'm not sure how much difference 1-1.5oz would even make balance-wise? And I'm not motivated enough at the moment to cut line and switch out reels...
