Gotcha, The wire body of the spinner bait is good enough to keep their jaws off the mono. I was fishin small jigs for smallies in the Passiac last fall, having my line just go limp a hand full of times, like someone under the water had a razor blade. The large flashes I saw told me I wasn't retrieving over sharp/jagged debris. Thanks for the reply!
