i like my current get up. it decent over all. can do anything. but its damn taxing while plugging. mostly due to the butt being so damned long. it can do it.. but its not great.

so figure i will get a slightly smaller maybe 7-9ft range. not a problem. except every where i go the butts are annoyingly long. since id be pluggin with it, id like to be able to simply twitch wrist as opposed to having to move my whole arm thanks to the rod butt. i like my rod tip REAL low while plugin. so the butt lines nearly the entire length of my forearm. making subtle twitches a real pain. also something fairly stiff would nice.

any ideas?
