That line is too light, IMO, just sayin', and no rod will make up for it. Not in the brush. Tict Ice Cube Rockin' Power, with 4 lb test K9 flouro, has worn them out for me. I am talking about +1 lb fish, regularly. Too bad it just went up in price 4000JY at Digitaka.
I have hauled many a honkin' big cracker out of the brush and trees with that very combo, and posted the pictures here. This year I plan to do it again with that rig as backup to my new Evergreen Limbertip, but that rod is crazy-expensive and hard to find, if not impossible. It has a slow tip that hooks fish instantly, but a stiff backbone in the bottom half. I have horsed many a nice bass away from the timber already with it. I just did a thread in panfish about a big cracker, my 1st of "21, so I am pretty sure it should do just fine. I KNOW the rockin' power will - with the right line.
When I got on them good last year, I tried it with Gamma 2 lb panfish, and it was not enough, no. I even had the JDM polyester orange Varivas 2.3 lb on one rod, and that was a disaster with a capital D. That K9, though, works great. It's probably really a 6-7 lb line; I have not tested it. The big 'crackers always seem to bed right next to the hairiest snags, so I no longer fool with ultra-light lines when fishing for them, especially in that particular water.
I've landed a 10 lb class largemouth on my Triple Cross (TCX-T682AJI), but I use it as a dock shooter only. The Tict RP and the Evergreen are my go-to casting rods.I think if you just used a stronger line you could turn them with that.
