  • Can i ask... are you using straight through mono? if so whay is that? (dont mean it in a rude way just interested)

  • @tigesinaus

    I use braided line, with flurocarbon leader materials....I havent used mono for years and years. And will never use it again.

  • Why do you have your drag set so loose??? Do you have a certain way you set the hook with loose drag???

  • @kicknbazz1615

    Call me crazy, but I only fish 4lb mainline and 4 lb leader. I used to use 6lb but have gone down to 4 to make things more interesting. The Bass in my local waters arent huge, with a mid 40s being a good fish, so I like to give them a chance. Yer, I may fish with light drag, but it makes for more interesting...and fun, fishing.

    IMO there is no fun in simply locking the drag and skull dragging fish out on 10lb+ line...there is no sport in it either. But, thats just my opinion.

  • great stuff. as a point of interest what breaking strain line are you using. it seems to be extremely light, as you have your drag set very light, and had that bust of on a seemingly innocuous strike.

  • I use 6lb line, with 6lb leader. I see no reason to fish heavy, as that takes all the fun out of things. As for the bust off, I know whats under the waterlevel at that snag and trust me, there is nothing innocuous about it.

  • ok, thanks. just looked like mono the way it was holding the curl coming off the spool. ive herd of people using straight through mono, out of preference, i was just interested to know why someone would choose that..

  • Does the water ever go above that wall? Or is it just like drought?
