Thinking about it. I have some 30lb Whiplash for my baitrunners when I jig with them in the canal. I wanted to try some on a lighter tackle rod for some schoolies.

I was thinking Spiderwire saltwater fusion. The 30lb is a 10lb mono diameter. I could get a bout 200 yds on this reel I have.

I was also thinking of trying the Yo-Zuri Hybrid. It's flourocarbon and nylon mix. It's supposed to be very sensitve as well.

I tried that SpiderWire....and I don't know.....but I felt it was a bit "wirey"...

...I had it on a small reel, maybe the test was too strong...I can't rememer now....My nephew kind of "inherited" that rod...took him scuppin ... and he loved it!!!....I kept telling him he was using a "Lucky" rod......

...well, I'm sure you can figure out the rest.....How do you say NO, to a 6 year old???....

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

Spider wire is a braid you may be thinking about Fusion. Bloo you have all the teasers you need and go with a braided line. My cod rod is a heavy action 7' Penn Slammer with a 4/0 senater and 50# braid. I think you will need at least 20 ozs. on your jigs unless the water is shallower than 150' Mono has to much stretch for jigging but fine for bait fishing.

no time during the week to make blanks, weekend only.

I'm sorry, holding that one hostage bubba.You know why and you know when it will be back in your possession. So don't sweat it.

Let's see 8 pikie cedar bodies turned,sanded, drilled, nose shaped, slot cut for what? 7 jointedneedle bodies from poplar and pine.

Then a few slip needle bodies for painting some plugs.

Then what 7 more small slip pikies for nothing ,all shaped ,sanded,slot cut drilled even for eyes and weights. Then a couple more needles. And you wanted me to make a storage thingy for pikies on top of all that?

be prepared.
