If there's not a lot of cover to break off in and long casts are most important you may want to go to a spinning rod with a large capacity reel like a 40 size. Spool it up with Nanofil since it casts a mile and use a fluorocarbon leader. Longer rods typically cast farther.

This has been a winner for me for weightless senko t-rigged or wacky. Abu Garcia Revo MGX spooled with Excalibur Silver Threat copolymer line on a 7' MH Duckett Ghost.

^THIS

The DX703 is perfect for slinging a 5-inch weightless Senko a mile. I'd probably skip on the E7 and the Core 51 in favor of one of the new SVS Infinity models (Metanium, Chronarch CI4+, or Curado I) depending on budget you'd be happy with any of them. For single hook, slack-line presentations I prefer a faster gear ratio, so I'd get one of the XG/HG models.
