Which coil is best for Sovereign XS the SEF or WOT?

I don't have any experience with the larger SEF coil, but the WOT is an excellent beach coil on the Sovereign 
It has great coverage and really added to my finds this past season in the sand. The biggest downside is the weight, but that can easily be fixed with the right rod combination. My suggestion is to set up a complete rod specifically for the WOT. I built one using a White's lower rod and mounted the control box about 3-4" behind the elbow to counteract the extra weight of the coil. Total cost was around $75, and now all I have to do is swap my control box when needed. Even with the extra weight it balances perfectly and you can't even tell the coil is there. 
Also you can drop some more weight by ditching the coil cover and using bedliner spray (Credit to Critterhunter for the bedliner and White's lower rod combo, it makes a huge difference).
