[QUOTE="H82bogey, post: 288965, member: 1372"] For me it all depends on what I'm trying to fish, depth, speed, crank size etc all come into play. I have 4 crank rods, 2 long and 2 short. My shorties have leadcore reels on them, but I have 2 extra reels spooled up with fireline. I will switch those two rounds and reels around depending on situation. For example last year, was fishing in a bay, the bite was hot and word was out. There was easily 40+ boats around and not a lot of real estate. I ran my leadcore short rods off the back and put 1oz lead clip on sinkers on my long rods off the side. I didn't have enough room to run 100+ feet of line out with all the boats around. As water temps warm I switch all my stuff to fireline. I get funny looks in July and August when I'm cranking at 2.5-3.0 mph, but the looks stop when the rods keep slamming over. I personally never put leadcore on my boards. I think the clips can damage the lead inside. [/QUOTE]
