Missouribassman95 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Well the lightest line on all my rods is 8 pound test. Is that too heavy for finese?? Quote
Super User deep Posted February 22, 2011 Super User Posted February 22, 2011 You can finesse a 8" hudd deluxe with 25 lb line, or a 3" senko with 6 lb line. It's not the line, or the bait, or the rod. It's your presentation. Now, if you're talking about dropshot.... EDIT: Well, that was sort of a smart@$$ reply. If you think a 8lb line is not thick enough to hinder the presentation, keep using it. Quote
zero Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 fineese is slow presenation with small baits Quote
MFBAB Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Probably not. If you're not getting the bites maybe go down to 6. You basically want the smallest line diameter you can get by with because it will handle better with the lighter baits and also give them better action. Quote
bigfruits Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 fineese is slow presenation with small baits i think its not the size but how you use it. Quote

Super User roadwarrior Posted February 22, 2011 Super User Posted February 22, 2011 Best of both worlds: original Yo-Zuri Hybrid #4 ~8.5 lb test! Green is virtually invisible in gin clear water, purple smoke is the best choice in stained water. However, Green, smoke or clear will be just fine in any water, pick the one that compliments your rod & reel combo. 8-) Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted February 22, 2011 Super User Posted February 22, 2011 I use 40# superline for finesse presentations using weightless Zoom finesse worms or those worms on shakey heads. A yellow color line works very well even in clear water. Quote
Vinny Chase Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 If you are asking specifically about the line, I would suggest 6 lb Seaguar Invisx Quote

Missouribassman95 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Posted February 22, 2011 Probably not. If you're not getting the bites maybe go down to 6. You basically want the smallest line diameter you can get by with because it will handle better with the lighter baits and also give them better action. That's what I was wondering. Mebbe I worded the topic wrong. Quote
