they are both great rods, ask yourself what you will be fishing for...thats a more important criteria. 

I have the 3113mb and it manages the big whites and chum quite nicely, I run 15 main and up to 12lb leade.  While I have never fished a 3113 LB, if all it is, is a lighter version of the 3113mb, I would  not want to be fighting a lot of springs and chums on that rod.

the 3113 is long and limber enough that it is fun with a 4 lb coho but still has the back bone capable of taming springs I dont think that can be said for the 3113lb
