Tagger - ever fished linen - Assinippi line? That was my favorite line for the 140 squidder. When jiggin the ditch, the line had so much drag you had to throw at least 5 ounces to find bottom. Favorite jig was the eeelskin jig. Probably about 50 pounds of those on the bottom.  |
low & slow 37

If you're worried about the line digging in: When you wind in, think of a big screw, the line being the threads. Do a coupla layers of veryfine thread followed by a coupla layers of coarse thread. The coarse thread layers stop the line from digging in more than a coupla wraps. Works for me. Before I started doing this, I was cutting whole spools off.

Cortland braid in 30# or 50#. The line doesn't bury in itself and lays on the smooth. I had a great season with it. I use it on my slosh 20, 7000C3, 6500CL, 7000i and BG 7000
