I have had much luck using single hook rigged sluggos ripped extremely fast on the surface - forget pencil speed - faster.
I use a 7 ft Loomis and a Penn 360 slammer with braid - I tried using bigger gear but at the speeds I fish the sluggos I was worn out in a 30 mins.
Wed June 7th fished the Mack with my brother - 42 bass all over 30" all caught on fast twitched sluggos.
