Not a fan of break away hooks. Since I am always looking for that monster cod my rigs are overkill but I know when I hookup that fish is coming to the surface. I will sacrifice a jig or two of the peace of mind.
Personally I like 2 speeds myself. On the fast drift days when you have to do a lot of casting and retriving it makes life much easier. I also like "grandma gear" when bringing up both larger fish and bugeyes. Slow steady even retrive is the ticket to landing more fish.
