The Gear

 

The Boat
At sheffreys guide service we use the best type of boat available, A Willie Predator. A gradual bow entry that gently lifts you over chops and waves. A soft 10 degree vee design that rides on top of the water, not in it!

Precise bottom straking combined with a unique planing pad afford exacting tracking and blistering performance.

Every Predator is manufactured to meet the rigid standards required to wear the Willie Boat label. This, combined with a style and grace that stands out like a swan amidst a flock of mergansers, make Predator the boat that feeds your needs for Simply the Best.

The Line
At Sheffreys guide service we use 100lb test whiplash Unlike traditional braids, Whiplash is processed into thinner diameter, making it smoother and nonabrasive so it casts farther and is easy on ceramic guides and reel components. Super for deep water jigging, it's small diameter and no-stretch design cuts through water quickly and allows you to fish with much lighter equipment. But it's still strong enough for big halibut, tuna, snappers or Great Lakes salmon. Berkley Whiplash is also the longest casting braid you can use in freshwater situations,

SAR1084C Length: 9' Power: 4 Pieces: 2 Casting
This powerful, moderate-action mooching rod handles up to 30 pound line and will troll/mooch up to six ounces or cast two to three ounces without a problem. It's an excellent rod for bobber fishing those large fall Chinook near tidewater, and its oversize guides and tip-top allow extra room for bobber stop.

SAR1265C Length: 10'6" Power: 5 Pieces: 2 Casting
Designed for mooching in tidewater and ocean salmon fisheries, the 1265 has a powerful tip and butt, capable of casting three or four ounces or mooching/trolling up to eight ounces. Rated for up to 40 pound line, the ten foot plus length gives you excellent line and lure control in all trolling and mooching situations, plus helps keep the fish from the props when you get him close to the boat. It also makes a nice surf rod if you need more than one reason to buy it. The standard version has long cork rear grip and graphite trigger reel seat, while the "BC" version has a long cork fore grip and short rear grip to accommodate mooching reels.
