Tiger fish
I supplied a client with end gear for these things, and a foot of 60lb cable was all he used.
BUT all the lures had 5X Mustad treble hooks retro-fitted because they just mashed everything else flat.
The split rings were high carbon Wolverine triple wind (no super owners in them days).
The lures........oh it just goes on and on.
