Re: tope tackle
12 - 20lb or 20 - 30lb would be better choices. 30 - 50lb rod would be more aimed at larger sharks or Skate.
25 - 30lb Mono should be fine. Where will you be fishing?

Re: tope tackle
for some unknown reason tope seem not to be present in cork. One area that would be good
this time of year would be in a boat near greystones. From the shore you are looking at
putting in huge effort
I like to use an uptide rod, often it is useful to cast the bait and the soft action helps cushion
the load during the fight. A 7000 sized multiplier spooled with 25lb mono would be good.
10/0 owner circle hook, 18 inches of biting trace of 100lb wire and I use a 6 yard rubbing leader
of 60lb mono
