I use the same setup with a DOA-style shrimp and pop it every now and then.
Works well with live finger mullet too.Mr. Cleland likes this.Carl

Pier#r,
How do those stops work on braid? Most of my spinning stuff is rigged with braid with fluro or mono leader.

I assume 40 or 50 lb mono wouldn’t hold up to King mackerel, would a King hit a shrimp?

Like Carl said... a keeper king will slice through.. as will a axe handle smack. But my favorite eatin size will take it all day long... They can see really well so hook placement and color is key, I had poor experience with tin colored hooks. the coffee bronze worked good. #8 or # 10 treble. Keep a eye on your leader.. replace it often Originally Posted by MarkS1320

I use a 4" pear float for freshwater catfishing. ( 4" Big Pear Float ) Wonder how it would work in the salt? The weighted version has a 1 oz lead built in.
For night fishing a 8" glow stik helps light it up (punch some holes with a 16d nail and it hold well) This my night time catfish catching rig.
