Basically the title.

I’m running some nice Japanese braid but I feel like it’s a bit small/thin/light for the application.

Just looking to find out what others use!

    I run 20lb suffix braid to a 12 lb flouro leader on a 7ft fast action SLX with a 7.3:1 Tatula. With this setup, I felt like I have significantly better hookups with finesse jigs than full size. I also fish a lake with heavy pressure, so I usually opt for finesse jigs anyway.

      Okay then maybe I’m not too far off.

      I’m fishing more in that 3/8 to 1/2oz range, and I’m running 30lb braid to a 12 or 16lb fluoro leader, depending on how quickly the leader is getting chewed up.

      I also just picked up a few finesse jigs recently so I’m gonna have to try them as well.
