This is not finesse fishing – there is no room for light tackle unless you want to lose plugs. Bass are in these areas to feed and will readily hit your offering if presented properly. You have to be ready to yank them out of the structure.

I personally use Big Game 20 lb mono. Heavy mono leader 50-60 lb.

Thank you sir! I have a few setups that will do.

Good health and family
