Battery Questions For Nitro Z 7
Leavet as is and buy a portable 10a single bank charger. You wont have to charge the starting/electronics battery everytime

Closest Thing To A Senko?
Have a custom bait make make them in soft plastic with NO salt. Then use a 1/16 weighted hook. Soft and jiggly with same fall rate and more durable. Or contact Bick Baits (no affiliation) They make a salted stick that is exactly like a real Senko. Great craws too https://www.facebook.com/BickBaits

Hand Foiled Blue Gill
Great crank CB nut. Go a little more subtle and tone down the colors for a more natural look.

Yamamoto Products
Couple reasons I think many do better on Gary Senkos. They are heavier (more salt which is ballast) and they are softer. Both reasons why they are not durable. Home injectors have found a salt substitute that resuls in a VERY durable stick that weighs the same, sinks the same, wiggles the same, and are as soft as a Senko. I guess the big companies wont use it because they would sell way less baits if the dont fall apart.

First Attempt At Photo Finish
I love them. Inspires me to try it. Have you tried any more rounded cranks with compound curves?

Ultra Light Setups?
I have used UL Ugly Sticks which are glass. Too heavy in weight and way too whippy for me. I currently use a Gander Mountain brand UL. Nice sensitive graphite but not a lot of backbone down low above the reel seat. A size 10 reel and I love 8# Power Pro braid. I was catching 2-3# bass Sat morning that were schooling and bustin shad on the surface. 1/8 oz crank like a Super Teeny wee R works great and tons of fun with loose drag Max of $50 invested. Tips are too fragile too put over $100 into it.

Ultra Light Setups?
You say ultralite but seems to me you are really looking for a lite or ml. I dont see any "true" UL setting a hook in a bass' mouth but i also dont see a ml casting a 1/64 jig either I think you will need to see and feel a rod in person to see what you want/need. Specs might be deceiving. I have an old Quantum 6' lite that will sort of do both. I mainly use it for 1/8 cranks Dont go too long or they get real whippy

Not sure what you are saying Wayne 73sv is 2d di si and gps. Comes with everything you need. 9" screen 93sv is only $1200 which is the real bargain
