Have an area where I need to go DEEP (60cm+ would be ideal) and am considering lashing out on a WOT coil.

Pinpointing isn't an issue per se as I have permission to get stuck in with a shovel, and once I'm subsurface, I can pull the pinpointer or a smaller coil into play.

Who has (or had) one, and what's your opinion on performance?

I plan on dusting off the old PI beast, but that only has a 10" mono, hopefully it'll have enough punch but would prefer a machine with disc to avoid every whisker of wire.

Thanks

What will you attach the WOT to MW?

Just tyre kicking, spitballing and chewing the fat at this stage, but I'm a fool and my money and I frequently part ways :)
