I used 17 for flipping and pitching jigs/creature baits, 15lb for spinnerbaits,12lb for crankbaits, and 8lb and 6lb for spinning reels for drop shot and shakey head. Yea I've noticed if I fish rivers a lot for smallies it gets pretty beat up with the rocks and logs in there. Thats good advice because I my problem occurred in a pond for largemouth after fishing the river in the early part of the day for smallies.
