I know and I am not disputing you or KVD, I'm just saying there are a lot of different opinions

even among the Elite. I'm thinking Yo-Zuri Hybrid might be the perfect compromise!

 

 

 

 

I guess I never thought of KVD as the best jerkbait fisherman.  I suppose I never really thought about before now, either.

This fall I switched to seaguar senshi mono and it seems to help the hookup ratio. It seems to be a good medium between most mono and fluoro. A little stretch, just enough.

10lb Big Game. 

 

I use 2 jerkbait combos

 

6' 8" M/F Ethos/Mettle

 

6' 2" M/XF Avid/50E

Are you throwing a suspended or floating jerkbait?

 

As for line type, I like mono due to the treble hooks.

 

As for line test, depends on what you want the jerkbait to do.

8-10# mono

i'll be testing out some 8lb yo-zuri as soon as it arrives and i get the first chance to hit the water!

previously i used straight braid 20lb.  it works, but does pull the bait out of the fish's mouth more than i liked.
