With the size of some of the shad which have been in PJ pond (easy 2-3lb fish) I can see why you need heavy tackle, remember your live bait is in lbs, and not in plug ounces. This is the first I heard about the cows in PJ Pond, I haven't fished the pond in awhile might give it a shot over the weekend. When I came in around sunset this past Sunday the Shad were breaking everywhere....
My favorite live line setup is a Penn 320GTI and a 20-40lb rod, and 20lb green trilene, 40lb Seagur Flouro leader.
