I was just out flipping to the neighbors cat yesterday. I like to close my eyes and it feels like a 7 pounder.

Yeah I feel you Andy - In the past 2 weeks I ordered some Megabass from Japan along with some crazy japanese plastics, some other plastics from Louisianna, some new local made shaky heads, and just got back from Gander Mountain here buying some of the new berkley 100% floro to try out. Thank goodness Bass Pro isn't having a sale on right now - I have been fighting the urge for a new spinning set-up.
