I have an Xi3 12 weight and I absolutely love it, but it is a serious stick. I use it exclusively for big tarpon in the keys. I am not sure what you want the 12 weight for but I would say a 10 weight is way more practical and versital. I have an Xi2 10 weight that is great for big stripers, most tarpon, pike/musky, peacock bass, and almost any inshore saltwater really. But like others have said it depends on what you want to use it for. Keep in mind that a 12 often has an extra long cork handle for leverage in fighting big fish and while it might be a cannon casting (mine definitely is) it will not be fun making lots and lots of casts with it and you will lose a lot of the fun in fighting smaller fish.
