Speaking of line and trout magnets...

Do you think the main problem people don't have much success with them is line size, line type or both?

I use the 2lb SOS copolymer and fluoro leader almost all the time catching a bunch of fish. Dad fished the same bank with both crappie mags/trout mags but with 4lb fireline and no leader catching maybe 1/5 the number of fish.

Watching this re-enforeced my belief that if you aren't having luck on the magnets (either one) the first thing you need to evaluate is your line size. You'll catch fish with any color/right line size and catch a ton more with the right color/line size.
Oh I left out in my post.....I agree with you 100%.....LOL
