I've been throwing slug-gos ala McKenna's style this season. I started off using a conventional, but didn't like the feel of it. I switched over to my 9' spinner, and the results improved dramatically. I have been using a Lami 1081mh with a Saltiga 4500. SWEET combo. Landed several 30#+ already on it this season. I think that fishing the slug-go properly just about requires the use of spinning gear.
