    You will tire quickly jigging a TLD all day. Jigging sets are small and light but built to handle big fish over and over again.

    Braid as said is a must, trying to jig on mono in 50-120 metres would be frustrating as all hell, the line stretches, its fat and bulky and when you get a bite you may not get a good solid hook set due to the stretch.

    If you are wanting a strayline jigging combo then I would look at a spin reel with braid (50-80lb) and just swap the traces out depending on target species. I know a few guys straylining fort snapper using braid.
