Ok Snagging from the bank with Spinning Outfit and Surf Rod.Would I be better off with 65# Test Line? I'm thinking more along the line of breaking off if I get hung up.

I prefer the 80lb Power Pro braided. If I get hung,I hold the top fo the Penn reel and back up.. Breaks clean.

Well I use 80 pound on my Penn Reels ande just wrap it around the Cleat when Snagging from a Boat.This will be my first year from the bank because I sold my Boat.

I'm figuring wrap it around a Stick so I could hold it.

I like the old fashioned dacron for snagging, its not so thin that it cuts your hand or the fish.

Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.

I've never snagged from the bank but when I go snagging I use a penn reel spooled with 130# braided line. I think thats pretty safe since I know I'm not going to break it that easily. I know for some that might be a little much but hey its all in what you prefer.

40lb mono is what I use from bank with a spinning reel.

I have a short boat rod I am going to use this year with 100lb braid to a snap swivel. Tie up some 50lb mono leaders with hooks for easy breaks.

I always used the 80# braided line and it would cast great with anything from 2-6 ounces. 65# would snap in the force of casting sometimes. 80# will break at the knot every time if you get hung on the bottom. Just get the line tight, then a sharp yank will cause the line to cut itself at the knot. Anything larger than that is too hard to break from the bank.
