8 lb p-line cxx for me.

Zoom trickworm , finesse worm and baby brush hog are my favorites. Honorable mention to the zoom ultra vibe speed craw too.

Thank you for the reply, i will take no chance and probebly purchase the motorguide x3 45lb. I think the bull dog is made by motorguide not minn kota.

Right now i have a minnkota edge 45 lb on my 15 foot alumiium boat for a year now, this trolling motor give me so much trouble during that time that i just want to put it in the garbage. I have look to the motorguide x3, it seem to be good but just to much plastic to my taste so i am now much more i...

The Owner k hook is by far the best i found, i always use a rubber o-ring on all my wacky rigging to give more clearance to the hooks and save baits of course. I use the no 2 for lighter line and the 1/0 for heavier line and i make my own weed guard with 50lb mono.

I prefer a contrast most of the time for my jig fishing.For exemple a black jig with a blue sapphire trailer are mainstay in my arsenal. A green pumpkin jig with a bull frog colored trailer is an other exemple when i try to match a perch or bluegill. :-k I tend to match a little more when i fish ult...

I only crank on p-line cxx, 8lb or 12lb depending of the cover and the deep that i need.In extreme cold water when i need the maximum deep of my crankbait i go on 10lb p-line PF original which is a little bit smaller than the 8lb cxx.I use P-line copolymere for everytthing , i only use braid for Fro...

My favorite by far is a zoom ultra vibe speed craw.

Lucky craft rc 2.5 or rc1.5 wakebait.I have caught a lots of fish with those bait over the years. You could take the Lucky craft lc version of the rc , it is exactly the same bait except for the color.

Hi, i am a big fan of the Lucky craft rc1.5 in both shallow and diving version, caught tons of fish on them :big grin: but with this long winter i have too much time left :oops: so i start checking for some new crankbaits to try and the Lucky craft skt series both mr and dr start to grab my attentio...

X2 on this.Strong , low stretch and cheap.My favorite all-around line.

I have fish a st-croix rage rod for 2 season, it was the 6,8" mh fast using it for pitching jig mostly, of course the blank is excellent , i really like the guide, it make the rod very sensative but the the handle shape is not confortable at all and the reel seat felt cheap and slippery.Check out th...

A buddy I know swears by the Offset Shank O'Shaunessy Bend hooks. Claims the slimmer profile allows for a better hookset without the possibility of the EWG's tendency to flip sideways when bit. Don't know, but he out fishes me with them. ](*,) This is the exact hook I was going to recommend, I use ...

My go to mid-price co-poly is still P-Line CXX however.[/quote]
2x on that.P-line cxx is the only line i fish beside suffix braid on 2 set up.Oh ! i forget, my jerkbait set up have P-line original 10lb, good line and cheap.
