Anybody have the BPS Carbonlite and Abu Garcia Vendetta?

I have 2 Carbonlites: Both 6’6” MH, one regular guides and one micro. I need to pick up one more rod so it’s either going to be another Carbonlite or Vendetta. I wanted to see who has both and if you are happy with them both as a good mix of rods, or if you had to do all over again, would you chose one over the other?

The Carbonlites are incredibly light, but the Vendetta seems to have that backbone and stiffness for pitching and flipping into the heavy cover. I’m eyeing the 6’9” MH Vendetta. The Carbonlites feel solid and strong as well, but just wanted to get someone who’s experienced both to offer some insight.

I have had both at one time... my personal choice would be the Vendetta over the Carbonlite though. It seems to me that the Carbonlite was more sensitive, but I did not like the open reel seat. I do love the ACS seat on the Vendetta though, I will not buy a rod unless it has the ACS seat. So it comes down to personal preference, what feels more comfortable to you?

I have a 7' Carbonlite spinning rod and a 7' and 6'6" MH baitcaster and I am very pleased with them. I use mine for worm fishing.

Think you mis-read my post just a little bit.
