Default Re: Fishing with wire

I make my own rods, I have a nice Lamiglass blank I made with carbide guides and a roller tip.

I use a Penn 114HS with all wire, I use a 4 foot leader of 100# Jenki mono, with a 5 oz jig.

If you are new to wire You can have the guy that spools it for you to put a 3 or 4 foot mono between each 100 foot section, this will allow you to no how many 100 foot sections you have out (normaly 300) and you can jig on the mono instead of the wire.

I use all wire and been doing it for a long time. But I kink it from time to time and there goes all the wire to the sea.

It sucks to fish this way!! especially when there are all shorts around!! But when the fish just arent biting this will save the day!!
