Excellent rig for BG pond only but strongly disagree on that type tackle for multi-species ponds.
OK for catch and keep but you'll kill your fish if CPR.
I just thought this was a little harsh. I have several friends that fish the same way I do and we don't feel it's a death sentence for every fish that's not a bluegill. In particular in cool water.
I'll guess we can just agree to disagree.
By the way, I use brand new 4 pound test every time I go out, and I can straighten one of those little 1/32 ounce Cabela's hooks before the line will break--so it's not like you can't put some pressure on fish with light line.
