[QUOTE="Hookin8easy, post: 126869, member: 1403"] I was using braid before but went to mono instead, lot less headaches. If/when you get a frickn mess it's much easier to deal with, you'll want 50# to keep from false trips, I like my 20# mono, little bit of stretch helps with the initial shock of being grabbed. Don't waste time and money on trolling spoons or flies,3 seasons and not a hit on either for me, regular large spoons do produce at times. And yes...many days I've considered nets a way better option when you drive over and over them all day and see them just piled up down there if you already have counter reels and are questioning rods wade @ Dakota hooked me up with the 8 1/2' Daiwa rods for about $20 [/QUOTE]
