8-12lb medium rod with a 5501 or 251 calcutta
lined with trilene xt solar green high vis with a 5' ultra green 12lb test leader.I'll run 45 - 55 feet of line out in most conditions.Having your plugs tuned is probley the most critical part of plug pulling.Set the drag medium to medium tight so it will get hooked but still take line if needed.Do not touch rod till buried and don't set the hook to hard either if at all.Good luck,
