Hi Anthony, Do you use a barrel swivel between your
line and your leader, if not Give it a try. I don't use braided
line myself, I prefer the 15# mono w/a 40# mono leader.
I agree with the specialist and that other fella, don't use
a treble hook, I also prefer the Gamakatsu 5/0 octupus
circle hooks, they are fantastic. I also would recommend
that you don't wade out up to your chest to cast, it is not
necessary and very dangerous depending where you are fishing.
The stripers are in closer than you might imagine. Tight lines
and Bigfish Anthony.
