I lost a big largie when the belly hook pulled completely out of the bait. It is possible that I cracked the bait when I landed it too close to a rock. BTW, in my experience it is a big fish bait. I probably caught 6 fish on it before I caught one under 4 lbs.
I have a $200+ rod that I paid $100 for but that is the extent of my splurge on rods. I keep my eyes open for deals and I have never broken a rod. Guys tell me I do not know what I am missing. That could be, but I'll never know! So, I'm good! And I have zero Ugly Sticks!
IMO, you need a light-line spinning set-up for finesse techniques. Those techniques catch fish when nothing else does.
Also, that 20# FC may be tough to cast.
Just make sure you have your two batteries hooked up correctly. Yes there is a way to do it wrong. Guess how I know. A breaker is also a good idea.
