oneshot Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 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. oneshot
ekl-stl Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 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. oneshot
Wayne SW/MO Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 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.

Members Bassman755 Posted February 10, 2010 Members Posted February 10, 2010 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.
fishinSWMO Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 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. Jeremy Dodson
duckydoty Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 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.
