I'm planning on starting a campaign up there as I'm new to the area.
Would love to see how everyone else is getting on, maybe organise a small social????
45lb flouro seems a little excessive to me.
I use 20lb to 12lb mainline and have never encountered a problem.
It's stiff enough to act a leader, sinks well and with 2.75lb tc rods I can chuck a 3.5oz lead over 120yds.
