    BEST LINE for?

    Any ideas (from use only please) on the best line for jigging in cold shallow water (under 55) with 3/8 ounce jigs?
    Must be at least 12 pound test and be able to take gorilla hooksets without popping... thanks

    I like the Seagaur Carbon Pro in 12-15# I also like the Yo-Zuri Hybrid in the same weights.

    I like the Silverthread AN40 17lb test, does not get all stiff like the floro's.

    reelman, for fishing jigs I use 50 lb Powerpro braid. It has the same diameter as 12 lb mono and will not break in a gorilla hookset.
