Quillback Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 Is this thing a decent search bait that I can fish fast to locate some decent fish and then lock down on the area and pick it clean with other baits? That's what I was doing a couple of weeks ago, drag the wobbler, get what bites I could, then follow up with the Ned.
Guest Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 I use 20lb red label seaguar , excellent dragging bait
Sprint21fter Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 I throw mine on 17lb flouro. I like to bust there chops when I can.
5bites Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 I'm trying out the Sunline structure line. It has even less stretch than shooter. I'm just one trip in on it. So far I can say the abrasion resistance is great but I'm undecided if I like it better than shooter. We shall see. I'm using it in pitching and skipping applications. It may end up more suitable for casting and dragging (wobble head, football jig) which is obviously what it was designed for really. It has a low diameter.
Hammer time Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Awesome detailed report! Thanks for all the Intel and sharing your knowledge. Killer results, you are a great stick and one of the best guides on the Rock! Champ188 1
denjac Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Jim Rodgers called crankbaits tourist baits. And he made and sold em at Rodgers lures. I still have a bunch of deep jims, slim jims and fat jims.

fishingaddiction Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 I pull the swing head with10 lb P line flouro on a 7' Duckett Med action caster . Sounds light compared to some other guys, but it doesn't get stuck much, lures have better action and more bites in the clear water IMO. Starting to think I do nothing but fish finesse techniques.
