Coils and coils - which one next?

I am going to get another coil, but which one? I have the Digger and 10x5 HF DD, but I am trying to choose between the :coiltec: WOT 15" 3 kHz and the :minelab: 9" LF concentric, I like the coverage and the depth of the WOT, but I also like the depth and flexibility of the 9"concentric where it might also be a little better for shallow lake wading. I am impressed with the Digger and Coiltek's products, that's for sure. I don't really want 7.5khz for my needs. What's everyone's thoughts, picks and pans?
 
I say 9 inch LF. Although you will get less coverage than you would with the WOT, it will be a whole lot easier swinging and pin pointing in shallow water.

Great point
 
Although not waterproof, I'm a big fan of the Minelab 10.5" coils. I have both of them and both have done very well for me but each have their own personality.

Thanks for that Mapper, but I think I really want to stay with waterproof for this last coil.
 
Yeah John, Id think if your goin towards the water wadding your on the right tack. I'm sticking to DD coils because my tecniques are heavy on the dd wiggle. That's how I final and quickly ID . Water hunting though you won't be doing that. Probably getting hits and scooping in the water. Just need to really overlap those concentrics and they'll do fine.
I'm still using the digger and having fun. Only other coil is the 5x10 and still no need for anything else. If I ever get an exclusive on a farm field I'll think about the 10.5 dd maybe 7.5 khz. I've heard so much good on that coil. I think Longhair has the 15" WOT. Not sure but maybe he'll chime in here and can advise on that one. GL n HH buddy.
