Weclome to the BigFishTackle message boards.
My computer was down when this thread went through. I don't know how I missed it when I was back up.
Let me give you some insigt on these southern species.
Small to medium flashy objects are one of the keys to them. 1 oz Kastmasters, 2oz Krocodiles and Tady 45s would be the basic recipe. All colors in Chrome or Chrome/Blue. The Tady 45 would be best in a Yellow with Green sides.(they call that one the Dodo)
If you are planning to Walleye and Muskie gear, then you will be set up just about right. Walleye gear for the smaller species and Muskie gear for the larger species.
I might suggest purchasing some of that Tyger leader material as well. It works well with the toothy critters that are down that way. It will even work good for the toothy critters up in your neck of the woods.
I have used the Tyger for the Barracudas on the West coast. It performed so well for me that I was impressed.
You may also want to get you some of the Rapala needlefish in the dark/shiny color. They are a little heavier than your standard "Floating or Countdown" Rapalas but they are effective for the Cudas too.
Good luck and let us know if you need any more information.
