    Thanks! The occasional trip to the Cal Delta would probably call for the Shakeyhead. That's only about 3 trips a year though. But I ended up ordering a Shakeyhead anyways with my concern of using heavier weights for deeper waters in our deep reservoirs here.

    Is the new EMTF really no longer an all purpose rod?

    It is still pretty versatile.

    That model was discontinued when the g2s were released. Used models occasionally pop up on forums etc for both the g1 XX and Levante models.

    Otomat is where it’s at!

    Christened my Otomat with some Rico bass this morning. Thanks for pointing me in that direction. Very nice feel to it. A little surprised no hook keeper but it really works a Rico nicely. Fav new rod!

    Otomat is crazy good. I keep meaning to chunk some squarebills on mine just cause.
