[QUOTE="gonefshn, post: 39887, member: 380"] Use Suffix 18lb or Cabelas 18lb leadcore. Get either a Diawa 47 or Shakespeare (really like the new Shakespeares in that if you crank the handle backwards when reeling in it cuts the drag in half if you have a big fish on) line counter reel. For the outside rods, I like 14 footers and for the inside rods either a 8 1/2 for a 5 1/2 shorty. The 14's on the outside really help cut down on lines catching each other during those times when your cranks need to bounce of the bottom or rocks. I like using a 20ft 14lb fireline lead and connect it to the leadcore with a Willis knot. The Willis knot feeds nicely. [/QUOTE]
