Nice selection- my jig-pig rod is a 6-6 uglystik with a pflueger Trion (size 40) usually 8-12 or heavy braid- but I usually do 5 foot light with a 20 size president or my actually 4 foot ultralight- I'm very guilty of always under fishing-really need to upsize sometimes

Edit - I re read ur post - I thought u caught a bird!(nights- ugh) then got a 14.5 hybrid- my mistake - still nice selection.
