Megabass Levante

[Sneaky Pete]

I am looking at getting a CASTING rod and reel for light baits. I want something like a medium power,  fast\extra fast action. Like i said it's for light baits like finesse jigs, weightless flukes, and weightless or SLIGHTLY weighted sencos. I REALLY like the looks of the Megabass Levante series rods. The only problem is that they don't have a rod that exactly fits the bill for what I'm looking for... The "Extreme Mission Type F" seems like it would maybe work, but I wanted to hear some input from you guys. What do you think? will the Extreme Mission Type F be what i'm looking for? or is there another model in the Levante line that would work? Or should I look at other options... Thanks for your help as always!!

EMTF would be too much rod for those techniques IMO. The Diablo would be more along the lines in that lineup of what you are looking for, but i would personally shell out the extra and step up to the Orochi XX series and the diablo in that. The Levante's are decent, but the Orochi XX are on another level. I used many finesse jigs on the diablo in the XX, and it was excellent for that, along with being a great chatterbait rod, swim jigs, smaller swim baits, flukes would work well, senkos, lighter T-rigs, etc... great all around rod.
