Just 10lb test for the Jig. Was not prepared for sure.
I did learn that the go-to-gear... never to forget gear... is the needle nose pliers. Luckily I did grab that. But no net and just my cell phone for the pictures.
I figured if I did hook/land one with the light gear and lost the tackle at least that means I got into one. A price I was willing to pay.
I use the rod set up that I know how to handle. For the Wipers I throw the mighty SS Jr tied directly to 20 lb test with my light bait caster but no need to worry about teeth-nash-n, snagle-tooth toothy-critters.
Regetfully after reading the other posts maybe thats all I should have taken, but I left both baitcaster and spooks at home because I knew I would be throwing for bass, crappie and perch with the small jigs which means the go to 6 ft ugly stick and medium Shakespear spin reel that cuddy buddy nabbed at a yard sale for $5 earlier this summer. I threw on fresh line and went fishing fo sum bling to add to the picture collection. I think it was outa the water less than 2 minutes and he left in a hurry.
