Wear korkers. Quonny is an easy place to land fish. I thing them lipgrip things with the 50 LB scale in them are nice and probably of some use at Quonny. Quonny was good 15 or twenty years ago when there was usually noone else there. No line dance!. Best pole is an Allstar 1088. All the other brands you need the 1089. Conventional 6500 size reel with 35 LB Cortland spectron. An eel with a big hook in it!. I used to like 4/0 hooks then 6/0 or 7/0 now I think the best hook is an 8/0 mustad 3407!! I think that's the best hook cause they don't make a 9/0!!
Maybe I'm getting paranoid but the longer I fish , the bigger the hooks I use.
