For dragging lead, I use and the Ugly Stick tiger series, 7" 20-50# line. I forget the price, but it was under a $100.

Best regards,

I have two identical set-ups.
The rod is a Ugly stick BWLB 1100 its 7' M action
Reels are PENNS 330 GTIs.(levelwinds)
Perfect set-up with level winds for when I have people
on board who don't know how to feed the line back on.

THe best I ever did was a lamiglass 963m custom made into a trolling rod. I have two matching for the boat.
I am not sure what the replacement for the lami is.

Bill you may also want to try this knot.
Remove around 5 inches of the lead core then feed your leader into the hollow spot until you hit the lead. then just tie an overhand knot.

I know the rule is remove the lead, but I tied a few knots in the basement with the lead in and out. Pulling with a spring scale, I found leaving the lead in was a stronger knot.
It don't make sense, but thats what I found, so now I leave the lead in. Try it both ways. Oh and I tie something like a double bimini, one line tied on the other. Its not a knot you will find online, its passed down from generations.....just experient and find the best for your set-up. |
