I usually fish at night and they aren't line shy then so I am throwing them on a med or med/hvy baitcasting setup with 14lb line to help direct traffic after they are hooked...low water fishing.
I throw the Xcalibur XT-3 which is a big bait. It is a 2 treble hook model. I use the Pfluger Supreme reel. You might could get away with the bigger gear I have just never personally tried it. I am a big believer in using the lightest line possible. I feel with the 8lb test line and being in the boat I can run them down. I use nanofil which to me seems a lot stronger than it rated strength.
