That’s what I use mine for and find them perfect for any 6lb line work on river or lake

Have ai read somewhere that they are more like 1.5tc rods?

This is what i have read as well. I believe that the 1.25 t.c butt section is on par with the 1.75 t.c and the 1.5 t.c is more of a softer through action rod.

12ft 1.25 torrix is a very tippy rod IMO. It has a sensitive tip and softish first 1/3, the butt is powerful, definitely stronger than the 1.5 version.
