Default bucktailing fluke with 10lb braid

Who has 10lb braid on their spinning outfit for bouncing small bucktails? What kind of braid do you prefer?

I have a super tiny spinner that I use 8lb braided line under the correct conditions:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...9SIA0RT0764762

I like it, but only the right conditions here in NJ - calm, flat lying, west wind+outgoing tide on a private boat. Not the kind of gear you want to use with ripping tide on a packed party boat - you'll be public enemy #1 in no time! If you know what your doing you can probably get away with it under any conditions!

I caught a 6lb fluke this summer when the fam and I stayed in Loveladies and went on a non-sponsor party boat - won the pool $190 clams!

Have fun you will love!

I have a super light rod and reel set up with 10lbs.. a lot of fun on the light tackle.. Just make sure ur drag is not locked down bc when that slob hits dont want to loose em.. My set up is 10lbs power pro.. Then i tie my jigs with 10-15lbs top shot.. tied together with an albright..

Yeah, a surprise, but check the prices - nothing special.
