Sounds awesome, thanks :D And yes, the Kirisames are true works of art... Makes fishing with them a fun experience in and of itself. I'm not surprised that the F3 can wrangle in decent sized fish. I've landed a few 3 - 4 lbs largemouths on the F1 spinning and 4 lbs test FC, without too much trouble...

I have the F3-65XK, and although I don't use it for dropshotting it's a great rod for the described light Texas and also NED rigs.
