I use only up to 5 cause that's all I ever need to get down , even in the fastest currents. Some people need 6 to get dowm on the moon tides when its cranking , I don't. . When someone needs 6 , its cause it rippin and that produces more spots for game fish to am%$%$%$%$ bait fish who are helpless in the stronger current. I love the canal when its really bookin!!

As far as your time in with a jig going down when its rippen , then you need to look for different spots and fish it different. Find a spot where the current is heading away from you in general and drift the jigs in that curren instead of bouncing them from up current. If you select your spot right and cast into the right spot to get it started , you should be able to drift that jig out till your spool is almost empty.

If you are always just casting up and bouncing down , you are missing a lot of good oppurtunities for long drifts and many fish.
