well Mr. shark wrangler there doesn't seem like the brightest. the little guys will get ya though. they are surprisingly strong.

Cool videos.
Do you usually carry along bolt cutters as well just in case?

chris 5-10lb rocks as weight for the bait? WTF lol can you draw a diagram of how the whole rig looks in the water? I don't need to fish something like that here but I sure am curious to see what it looks like.

still isn't working out. they are where i suspected they'd be, but i can't find the ONE! two weeks left in the tournament and i still have the only tiger, so that's a plus.

Friday night around 11pm our hunt began. several runs, one shark bit in half on the way in, two break offs, one spooled reel, seeing and loosing a Mako and one shark on the sand later I returned home at 4:15pm Sunday afternoon.

only shark landed for me this weekend.






we might as well be called the cub scouts. :lol:

sorry for not writing out the full report. tired and a little frustrated. hopefully i'll make up for it next week. Still the best way i could have spent my weekend.

Tight lines guys! 8)

its just like a carolina rig with a snap swivel, either sliding or fixed, wrap 12lb mono around the rock, tie a loop and connect. the 12lb will break away on the rock when its jerked and the rock gets left behind.
