I use a pair of Penn Jigmasters. Have used them for years. They are cheap simple and dependable. In my opinion the 113 Penns are too darn heavy. The jigmasters are light and can handle any size fish. Besides you are in a boat you can always go after the fish. You can buy them on E-Bay for around 30 bucks used. Try and get one with the steel spool though. The aluminum spools will corrode in one season. Unfortunatly they no longer make the steel spools so you have to find a used old one. I use custom rods but any good boat rod will do. Use the carbide guides though the leadcore can wear into a soft guide. You really need a couple leadcore setups because a lot of times, esp in Cape Cod bay, the fish are not as deep as one might think. Just my 2 cents. Good luck. P.M.
