Tried both, but MH spinning most of the time--easier for me to skip weightless wacky under docks/tree limbs with spinning gear (especially if it's windy)

I do spinning. Braid to floro leader to cut down on the crazy amount of line twist.

Spinning rod with mono for me. Mono sinks slower. If I'm fishing a wacky rig I'm fishing SLOW.

Hate spinning gear. It's my nemesis and maybe 1 day I will attempt to tame it again. I use a bait cast with 12-15lb floro. 7' MH rod
