Have enjoyed finding this forum and learning from all of you. I had been looking for a good spot to go fishing this year and hit up some community ponds with no success. I hit up the Jordan River (South Salt Lake Area) and have pulled out some fun fish of a variety of species.
Yesterday I got a hold of something quite large and it snapped my line and almost broke my bass pole in two. So I stopped at the store and got a new pole.
My question is, what type of line would you recommend for fishing the Jordan River and it's native species? I bought 15 lb. I don't know if that's overkill, but I don't want the next one to get away. The pole I got is rated 8-15lb, so I assume I'm ok. Any pointers would be much appreciated.
Anybody else having luck on the Jordan right now?
