Went to BPS today and they actually have a 9' on the shelf...I think I'm in love, very nice rod, especially for price. After some good advice from several people I think I'm going to switch up my arsenal. Get rid of my 8' key largo cobia(a true Cobia rod), replace it with the 9' OSA Cobia. Get rid of the greenie 706(don't really need two bail-less reels). Then put a 7500ssv on a shimano crucial 7'6" MH FA for artificials. I still have my two 714z's for lighter tackle.

BarnburnerAU, thanks for the thread and #r thanks for the input, I'd been on the fence for awhile about trying one of these, and then Sammy popping in with a 8' for sale was golden.
I'm looking forward to trying out this 8'/704z combo at the pier.
I'm also looking forward to trying Sammy's food tomorrow, my wife and I have a 'kid free' lunch date.Ragnar Benson:

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
