Hope so. This is basically the 2nd year I've targeted them and the first year seriously. I have been using 30lb Suffix with 30lb flouro. Like I said I was stubborn, but after being unsuccessful the last week and with all the fish around, I admit I'm doing something wrong. Tomorrow four feet of 12lb flouro and no extra hardware. Uni to uni. With the water so clear and the sun high it 'should' help. We will see. Just need the fish to show up and test it out.
