Casting, spinning?  T-rig, Shakey, Drop Shot, Jigworm?  Do you have a price range you want to stay in?

No price constraint?

Okay...These are my set-ups:

St. Croix Legend Elite ES70MF/ Shimano Stella

2500FD/ Yo-Zuri Hybrid #6/ Gamakatsu 4/0 EWG

Offset Worm Hook (light wire).

If you prefer baitcasting gear: G. Loomis GLX

MBR842C/ Shimano Core 50MG7/ Hybrid #12/

same hook.

For heavier worms and/or weighted presentations,

T-rigs and C-rigs, GLX MBR844C/ Core 100/ Power

Pro (50/12)/ Owner 5/0 Offset Worm Hook (Superline).

For drop shot and shaky heads: Dobyns 683C/

CH50MG/ AbrazX #12/ 3/8 Evolution Shake2 or

Gamakatsu dropshot hook.

For line..I'd give Seaguar Invisx a try, kinda spendy but it's low memory, and seems to havea decent break strenght..I normally use yozuri hybrid ultrasoft..both of these lines are the 6 lb test. The seaguar is thinner than the youzuri, so you could go 8lb if you wanted to.
