I also have a long ride to rhode island and have done the same thing krispy has to learn new spots. Every time I meet up with a veteran of the sport I try to learn as much as I can from him and get the history of the fishing at different places from them. They usually share the places where theyve caught their monster bass and give the details of how it happened.
I fished with 50# power pro this year about 80% of the time. You can cast a mile with it, get better hookups and you can really feel whats going on with it. I lost a lot of nice fish with this line though too. Once you get near the rocks with it you're done. Where I fish theres a ton of rocks for the fish to get into and the power pro breaks when it rubs up against a rock under heavy presure. Tried different batches of it, tried backing off pressure and it helped keep from breaking off but the fish usually gets tangled up around so many rocks you can't get them out anyways. The last 20% of the year I used 20lb yo-zuri hybird and did much better with fish going into the rocks. I just cant trust power pro on holding up to larger bass in the rocks where i fish.
