I generally use the lightest stuff I have. Freshwater rods with 10# test. As long as those rods are sensitive enough to feel the squid "reach out" I've had to use heavier rods at certain times but I allways go back to the lightest one I have on the boat. Good luck out there. The HH is a top notch boat with a great captain and crew. Have fun!! Your weight will depend on the conditions. But generally we are using 1/2 - 1 1/2 ounces.
