Why upgrade to a Sustain from Stradic CI4

Hi Wreckers
Just an opinion.
Cant see why you would pay ~$150 extra for a slightly lighter, one ball bearing extra reel from Stradic CI4 to a Sustain HG. The handle on the Stradic "feels" better in my opinion as well.
Am I missing something here.
Lost a rod/reel combo overboard with a Sustain 2500 (Not happy Jan!!) and wanting to replace that, and add another light weight whiting popper combo to the list. Doing that with Sustains and quality rods prob ~$1300, Stradic CI4's with identical rods ~$1000.
Cheers

Shark Bay worth fishing in September?

I'm tossing up between a trip tp Denham or Exmouth  early in September, have fished Exxie (shark heaven) between March and November over the last 12 years and know what to expect, been to Denham a couple of times but not in September so was wondering if it would be worth going there instead of the trek to Exmouth, would appreciate a few opinions from those that have done this.


My favorite jig head to mainline knot - leftys loop

 My favorite knot for tying a jighead onto the mainline, giving the bait more freedom to move and look life-like.

navionics card

 hey guys, i just got a Lawarnce 2 Hook 5 unit for my 4.2mtr dinghy, i didn't realise it would not have a navionics card. Should i just go for a "silver card " as i won't be going deep, just local coastal waters bewteen Jurien bay & Denmark, or do i have to get a Gold card. I thought Silver would be fine, but i am sure it is only usefull in water up to 10mtrs deep. I am  CONFUSED.

PLEASE HELP :)
