Location: Freedom, WI		Black rivers live and troll works well from small to big. I ran some of my 10" last fall and worked well and for the price you can't go wrong. I have also used Lamiglas Ricky's stick with very good results. I would add that on the very hard thumpers to have a very very good rod holder. The other option is to go to a salmon rod and mono but I feel it takes away from the lure action.
