Hey Nick, Mad nailed it, wire for spoons........You can get away with braid for 25's and such, but in my opinion if you pull umbrellas be sure to add the drail(as mentioned above)the reason is they create alot of drag. The weight on the spoon is for action.....This is adjustable,mine are set about mid-way favoring the top of the spoon,when the spoons are working you will see a steady pulse on the rod. Good Luck, Ed
Got Ya Nick, I don't mind going on the troll.....I get the chance to wear out the guy's on the boat . I like to net and live-line bunker myself, but conditions on the water don't always allow this. I keep trolling as a option,it is work but it is an effective method for catching fish (not just bass)and if looking to save the day don't hesitate to try this..........When the clicker screams it is very exciting no matter what others think! Good luck, Ed
Hi Guys,If the snagged bunker actually makes it back to the boat, I use 10/0 circle hooks. I tend to use Owner or Gami hooks these days. There are many good hook manufacturers.Thanks,Capt. EdOne throw with the net and you get about 50 large bunker. I use only Gami's and alternate inbetween the J and the circle...
Luna sea What net are you throwing.
