    Default Thank you Rod Fairy!


    Got home from work last night and I had three brand new 11 foot BnM Buck' s Best Ultralite jig poles on my doorstep. Thank you Rod Fairy! Nice poles! Hope she brings me a couple of 10 foot Ozarks next! Man, I can' t wait to use them at the Conway Get Together. My question to you guys is what pound test line do you use on your jig poles? I use 6lb test hi-vis exclusively and I fish mostly Conway and several different oxbow lakes. Do any of you prefer heavier line and, if so, have you visibly noticed any difference in your catch rate?
