[QUOTE="Mizzou21, post: 139202, member: 3243"] Fireline crystal 10 pound test. If you have a cheaper hard sided gun case works well for 2-4 rod set ups and you can pick one up for about $30. Nothing worse than having your rods broken when you get to your spot. I agree with all the posts on lures, but for me Jackall has been by far better than live targets? Maybe just a confidence thing, but they seem to be louder with the rattle. Have a couple rods rigged and ready to go with you at all times, one with a rattle bait and maybe a flutter spoon as you may want to do a quick change when marking fish. I have had good luck salting my own minnows using the combo of 1/4 cup pickling salt and 1/4 cup sugar. Mix them together in a Ziploc bag and pour in a scoop of live minnows. Shake minnows in the mixture and lay them flat in your freezer. They last a while and seem to stay on your hook better than the frozen ones you can buy up there. Good luck! Heading up feb 2-5.
