dalthegooner Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I'd be using 10 or 12lb if there were minimal weed and snags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmarket Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Well as ashamed as i am to admit it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalthegooner Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 There's nothing to be ashamed of mate, especially as you caught with it. I've always fished as lightly as possible, but that's not to say it's the only way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmarket Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Well theres food for thought there dal thats for sure . For more than 30 years in my fishing it was considered criminal to even contemplate fishing a hooklink that was heavier than the mainline , so i know exactly how you are thinking . When i fish with mono i tend to fish with 12 or sometimes even 10lb line but i wouldnt dare go with 8lb or lighter hooklinks unless i was surface fishing ? Im sure there must be a thread on here somewhere , im off for a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beza26 Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 I used to always use IQ in 12lb. Even though it's a fairly limp material I use to do well using it for zigs too short to medium length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
