What Combo Is Next ??
Shorter rod for topwater and jerkbaits, look into the 6'10 or 6'7, you could still do most techniques in the lure rating on the rod except for cranking well.

SVS is when your changing lures with weight and profile differences. VBS is an easier system.

Curado G Or Curado I
G = clearance pricing, stupid easy braking system (set&forget) I = retail, wide braking adjustment that can be finicky

Wd-40
It's a myth, I think the makers of wd-40 even have it written in their faq about it. I'm not a fan of using wd for anything let alone a lubricate since it becomes sticky over time and hardens. *edit Here you go: What a Fish story! Myth: WD-40 contains fish oil. Fact: Consumers have told us over the years that they have caught some of the biggest fish ever after protecting their fish hooks and lures with WD-40. We believe this legend came from folks assuming that the product must contain fish oil since it appears to attract fish. Sorry Charlie®, it just ain’t so. WD-40 Company has taken steps to respect and conserve the environment, and encourages its users to do the same. While WD-40 can be used to help protect fishing equipment from rust and corrosion, WD-40 Company does not recommend using WD-40 to attract fish.
