Getting ready to head to the Bay in a few weeks. Gonna try chumming and fishing the wrecks and maybe the CBBT at night. I plan on using Penn 320 GTi reels. What type of line should I use? I plan on using a 3-way swivel to fish the bottom. I will also put one line out with no weight to catch anything coming in on top. I would like to also put one line out midway to the bottom, but I'm not sure how to rig to keep a bait suspended about 30 feet down. (assuming I'm in about 60 ft of water). All suggestions are welcome!
