I spend a lot of my time on the water thowing these two baits. Nothing beats the blast these baits get. I like to use 15lb big game on a large spool reel. The rod I use is a med action 7' GL2, its a real buggy whip. I have increased my hook to land ratio big time. A trick I always use is to take bow string wax and coat my line the last 5' keeps line on top like braid. Between the limber rod and the mono, most fish will have the bait fully engulfed, and seldom have a hook rip out. Try it.
