Or maybe a Flounder fling

I read the change 3 a day sounds fair.

3 fat ones could be a meal.

We are the Flounder capital of the world right ?

Thinking about it. I have some 30lb Whiplash for my baitrunners when I jig with them in the canal. I wanted to try some on a lighter tackle rod for some schoolies.

I was thinking Spiderwire saltwater fusion. The 30lb is a 10lb mono diameter. I could get a bout 200 yds on this reel I have.

I was also thinking of trying the Yo-Zuri Hybrid. It's flourocarbon and nylon mix. It's supposed to be very sensitve as well.

I tried that SpiderWire....and I don't know.....but I felt it was a bit "wirey"...

...I had it on a small reel, maybe the test was too strong...I can't rememer now....My nephew kind of "inherited" that rod...took him scuppin ... and he loved it!!!....I kept telling him he was using a "Lucky" rod......

...well, I'm sure you can figure out the rest.....How do you say NO, to a 6 year old???....

Spider wire is a braid you may be thinking about Fusion. Bloo you have all the teasers you need and go with a braided line. My cod rod is a heavy action 7' Penn Slammer with a 4/0 senater and 50# braid. I think you will need at least 20 ozs. on your jigs unless the water is shallower than 150' Mono has to much stretch for jigging but fine for bait fishing.
