Hey searchinthebay
Just wondering how you went sat night i am going out this sat morn (24-2) from vic point boat ramp if you didn't have any luck I'll let you know how i go
have sent u pm.. let me know how u go
Smiley yeah i did go out. One squire in the boat. Tried some new braid 80Lb with a 20 Lb Leader. Hooked something snapped the leader. Re rigged with 10Lb leader. Hooked something else ran like a freight train snapped the braid. how can you win??
Damn, that sucks. All the bust offs that is. I don't know whether to go searchin for that wreck or go further to rouse cuse i heard their gettin some big spanish macks round there at the moment. decisions decisions eh. Anytime you want another boat to cruise round with send me a message always lookin for another fisho to fish with.
Oh yeah I heard braid has awseome strength but is not very resistant to abrasions, apparently you need like 3 metres or so of good leader when using braid. maybe it didn't bust the braid but the braid rubbed against some structure or something. I'm just learning about these new lines so i maybe totally wrong too.
try this link buddy may help you

There is a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges
Up here we Use Hussar as baits for real RED FISHS (SHSIIFDER)
Smiley i had a three metre mono leader and the time it snapped the braid i really don't think whatever fish it was was any where near the bottom. This thing picked it up and headed for Redcliffe at a great rate of knots. I really don't think there was any abrasion. Clean snap.
80lb braid snapped before the 10lb leader? must have been fairly well damaged on something sharp on a previous drop maybe or did you mean to type 8lb braidOriginally Posted by searchinthebay
.
I've had to bust off 50lb braid and 60lb leader when bottom fishing and it is hard work.
roo.
It was 100Lb Leader. 80 Lb Braid.Typo error
Damn that must have been a big fish dude. I had something similiar do that to me under the gold coast highway bridge in the nerang river. picked up the bait started to run then snappo never had a chance. makes ya wonder what they are when that happens also makes u wanna go back and find em again with bigger gear.
Yeah i know. I am guessing it was a shark and by the way it ran a bloody big one. I had caught a black tip earlier that day about 2 1/2Ft long but it still would have been good to actually bring it up to the side of the boat to have a look at. And by the way smiley i now know where the wreck is so next time i am heading out i'll let you know. I had my knee operation yesterday and it feels ok so i might get out on the weekend Hopefully
Thinking about heading out this weekend to have a look ofr the wreck. Try out my sounder skills. Hope your knee's feeling better.
this weekend as in 10th or 11th or next weekend. If next weekend i just might see you out there. I have a few difdferent ideas i want to try. I might even head out one night this week
What night might that be searchin?
