It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole

I have a 60 and its 5 or 6 years old now. I never wash it off or take care of it. I test it a few times a year for accuracy and its always dead on. Carry it on a zinger on your belt and clip the gripper part on a caribiner so it crosses your back. One of the best pieces of gear you can buy. All I carry on my belt is a knife, pliers and boga, the weight never bothered me. Get the 60 boga so you can release those 40#ers!

R, can you explain a bit more how you carry the boga. What supports the handle end across your back. Is the zinger enough? What style zinger? Is your plug bag also attached to your belt? The reason I avoided a 60 or even 30 boga was that I couldn't bear to have it banging around on long walks over irregular terrain.

Boga mounts on the retractor on the right side of your belt, jaws clip to carabiner on left side. The boga lays right across your lower back tight to the belt and out of the way. No bag on the belt in this set up. Make sure you get a high force retractor to keep the boga tight. It is strong enough to boga a fish and let go. The tensiton of the retractor keeps the jaws locked but is not too much to be a strain to extend. The one in this link mounts on your belt, but you can also get ones to clip to your belt if you do not want such a permanent mount.
