Why are you still putting this on with all of the closures south and speed restrictions? I was planning to fish but just won't do it with the restrictions and closures.

Re: Line Question from a NY Transplant

Welcome to California! I would recommend buying bigger, longer, meatier rods, you are in big bass territory! I prefer Powell. Good price point and wide range of quality rods. Go with braid on everything and use floor/mono leaders if needed.
