heart wood WRC.. it has a little tighter grain than the the sap wood.. it's just about all I use..

Hi Eddie... I fish those jointed giants ALOT... and your right.. they are slow crawlers.. NG for tuna speed.... I used the 4X 5/0 VMC.. and i havent heard that they were an Issue... Dan told me in a Text message ( which I hate) that he changed out the rear hook ( 7/0 VMC siwash) for a larger one.. something that those guy's use all the time, so I dont know if the hook was an issue or he did it because " that is what they do"... it took me 10 minutes to text "dont f' up the action of my plug by screwing with it!" I'll hear rthe whole story when those guy's get back.... |
