I was planning on having a few reels spooled with mono, but was thinking of
about 15 - 20lb test. Really think I should go as high as 30? I know you've been there before, so I'll take your word for it. -- Charles Summers Secret Weapon Lures http://www.secretweaponlures.com "go-bassn" wrote in message ... Charles - The Big O is tannic-stained like most FL fisheries. It is not a reservoir (not river-run), but does have many tributaries. I don't think you've been on a lake that even comes close to the size of BigO. I'd be packing 25-30 pound Mono if you're planning on flippin some weeds... Warren "Charles B. Summers" charles-summers@(comcast)(dot)(net) wrote in message ... ***You won't have to do the MONSTER hookset thing. Usually just a quick snap of the wrist is sufficient. If they've broken rods with superlines, the rods probably would have broken with mono if they did the same, stupid things. Most of the rods that I've heard of breaking have been when someone is trying to tear a lure free from a snag. I know better than trying to free a snag with the rod... but wouldn't a good hookset on a larger fish be about the same? ***Sure, why not? Worse case scenario if you think the line is visible is to run a mono or florocarbon leader. A chain is only as strong as its' weakest link, so why use a leader? What's your opinion on Lake Okeechobee? Clear, stained, or would you worry about clarity with PP? I'm only going to spool up about three rods with this stuff, so I guess I can fall back to mono if I loose confidence in this stuff. I've just heard alot about PP, and never tried it. Live and learn they say! Thanks for your responce! |
