              Way cool. Let us know how it tastes. Must be a close cousin to a swordfish?

                  That looks like a wooly bugger streamer.

                              I was thinking more about the weight of the line. Do you bait hooks or is the appearance and movement of the lure enough to get the fish going?

                                No bait, the appearance of the lure and the way it is retrieved is what does the business.  On that set up, I have 60lb braid mainline with a 130lb nylon leader.

                                        Yeah, that sounds just fine  🙂

                                        Not much in the way of fine sashimi here in the middle of the North American continent, but I did go on a salmon fishing charter out in Lake Michigan a few years back.  When we got back to shore and the skipper was slicing and dicing, I asked him to cut a chunk off for me to chow down on.  Now that was some fine eatin'!
