I might have a 9ft rod rigged for albies this Sept, but if i don't, I would really like to have a shot at them using my 10ft'er.

Any recommendations on terminal tackle? Could I get away with a heavy flouro leader?

What lures do you like? Keep in mind I'll be throwing a 10ft Lami SSU. I've hooked up, but dropped a couple albies on 3 oz Crippled Herring. Will they hit 3oz Kastmasters? Any other tins that would load my rod?

Float and jig: I know this method is deadly. Anyone know where I can get casting eggs? Zoom fluke below on jighead? Do you, or can you, even "work" them with a 10ft rod?

Thanks for the help. Too many times last year I watched (by myself) MONSTER albie blitzes, but never had tins on me. Not much of a tin guy, but I found a bunch hidden in my basement and put them to good use late in the season. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated. Tight lines!
