Yeah for the money I think the Amago is the way I need to go.. the vid of Daniel landing a 24" carp in 1 min 12 sec.. n by no means horseing the fish.. not that I wanna pursue them but knowing if I happen to hook one the rod can survive it is a plus in my book
And I like the extra length over the other rod as well I want to fish longer lines of day 20 ft regularly...it just seems to me to help out in fighting bigger fish I know this will be a smallmouth rod a good deal of the time!
