Default Re: Blackfishing line

My Favorite Braided line i use for the past couple of years has been multi color Diawa boat braid in 55 lb test. Nice round liner that is coated and thin diameter. I like the feel of it in my hands. I also like the multi color braid as i can thumb the spool as i am close to bottom so i can gently place my sinker without spooking the fish by pounding my sinker.
As for top shot Use about 15-20 ft of Andy mono in 40- 80 lb test based on area i am fishing. As for my rigs normally use flouro leader in the 20-80 lb class. Also dependent on area and bite. Favorite rig is the slider rig on long leader. When fishing down south will either fish slider or most often snafu 0n 60-80 lb leader. As for hooks normally use Owner octopus in the 4/0 - 5/0 size
That should cover your bases. Hope that helps
