Re: What size all-around line do you use for big baits?

20-30 cxx is going to be your most commonly used line, its cheap and it works. I use 20 for most my baits, and 30 for the mother/hinkle. The only and I mean only baits I throw with braid is a weedless hud, I use heavy braid with a 20 #flouro leader. ive tried straight flouro for huds but its too exp...

Re: Top hook versus bottom hook on soft swimbaits: which is

top hook goes much deeper and is the one I use more, you can get her down to 8 feet easy and much much lower if you let it sink.

Re: Your favorite big bait manufacturer

Hud/deps for the win. 316 are over rAted, they look amazing but don't cAtch the quality fish some of these other baits do.. The wake jr and baby wake imo are his best baits and catch big fish... Most the other baits just don't have "the right action" to fool the big smart girls

Re: Looking for recommendations on a swimbait rod 2+ oz

Low down custom rods are by far the best choice if you have time to wait and don't mind spending some money. If not the dobyns series are proven and the guide select xh is a great choice that can throw a 68 to a deps 250.

Re: Losing fish on Huddleston deluxe weedless shad.

I've caught dozens on both the weedless and top hook, I'm going to say it's your set up. I use a 8 foot low down custom heavy which is a fast taper Rod. If you switch to braid you should Prob increase your hook penetration if your rod is lacking the proper taper . Good luck
