Hey mate,nah i didnt end up getting it in.I got a number of hook ups the same and in the same spot.just runs flatout and to what seems to be the reef and cuts me off in the same spot.I end putting on 120lb mono and tryed again but only got a massive turtle,bloodly turtle power,couldnt stop it.
I get hookups like that several times each trip out. I have never landed one though and I can guarantee I will be making a new rig after each one. One of these days the plug will come out!
This guy can have this spot all to himself. If I need a fish that badly I will use silverbait at Kailis Bros.

Leverage
How's the leverage working against him there. A lot more pressure on the angler than the fish.
Great pic.
