When your running 8 rods and 8 baits, there is no stop and retrieve a hung up bait. You stop and your going to be loosing more than just one bait or untangling multiple lines and re-tie a majority of them.

Yep, I use 40lb and never turn back unless its a special bait. Had to go back for a prototype the other day, only had one and it was on fire. Shop the braid, you can find it for a decent price, specially in a bulk spool. Also, get something to wrap the line around if you get hung, wooden dile rod or piece of broom handle so the braid don't cut you pulling loose.

I am using 12 lb braid because I also use the same outfits to pull jigs. I may have to invest in more outfits and use heavier braid. I use 40 lb on my striper outfits. I use the KastKing from ebay. Cannot beat the price and have never had any problems with it. Just ordered about 1100 yards of 12 lb in yellow for a little over $20 shipped.

You can get the KastKing in metered line too

The crank is floating?? Does your line itself break or it breaks the structure it got hung in?

Think it from the ricochet from when the line breaks.When I get hung I pick my rod up and point it in the direction it is hung.Then I grasp the line against the pole and it either breaks or comes loose.I usually loose 4-5 cranks all year long,some years it less.And yes I do pull through steak beds and structure,.
