need help picking my next boat

Hi,
I currently paddle a Dagger GTX and a Dagger Medieval. Former boats were a Dagger Atom and a Pyranha Inazone 240. I'm 6'3" 205lb padling C-1 for four years, previous to that OC-1 for 20 years.
The GTX performs great on class 3-4 water. The GTX is great on fast technical creeks, it's stable, crisp eddies and good speed. I want all of the above peformance but a boat which is a little bit more playful. At least be able to stern squirt it on a moderate eddie line. I have been thinking about a Dagger Honcho but suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
LarryD
