Ryan,
I did pick up a 700gr SA Deep Water Express and created a 12.5' 292gr head, a 8.5' 165gr head, a 6' 169gr head and a 3.5' 92.5gr head. I will be testing these out this weekend. The choice for the 1178 was simple, it is what Bob had along for the trip and it had no problems throwing the 300gr heads (That does not include the problems I may have had).

All I need to do now is make or find a floating head and pick up a few of those 15' VersiTip heads... I should be able to cover most all waters then...
