Sounds good, I look forward to the report! [cool] I think I'm kinda leaning toward the ODC 420 (the poor man's SFC) for my upgrade. It'll probably be a few weeks before those plans materialize, however ($$$).
Also, as far as the baitcasting setup goes, I think I may have found my match--an [url "http://cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0043368122110a&type=product&cmCat=search&returnPage=search-results1.jsp&QueryText=revo&N=4887&Ntk=Products&Ntx=mode+matchall&Nty=1&Ntt=revo&noImage=0"]Abu Garcia Revo SC reel with a Fish Eagle XML 6 1/2 foot 2-piece medium heavy rod[/url]! The combo runs for $200 less a $10 factory rebate from Abu Garcia (thanks for the heads up, Fishhound!). It's a bit fast (7.1:1), but this way I'll be able to zip some muskie lures across the top as well as slow things down with worms, jigs, etc. along the bottom with a slower retrieve. I went up to Cabelas the other day and tried it out a bit--smooooooth!
