Hey Mike, when you say wireline for jigging, do you mean a wireline trolling setup? Just curious because you really shouldn't need a wireline setup for jigging. You really can't beat a Penn 113H on a Penn Senator rod for wireline. It'll stand up to much abuse. I've used downriggers and stainless wire line in the past. I really don't troll that much anymore but when I do, I've gone over to the same setup with leadcore. I seem to have better luck with less gear loss due to hangups. Too much rocky bottom around here for real deep trolling.
If you're just jigging and chunking, I'd go with something much lighter though.
