Thread: Big Bronzie surfcasting of the beach...i did it!!

Deer243,
I’m working away from home so have limited/ no photos of rigs or gear.

The rod is a South African made high modulus graphite 3 piece 14 ft. Short butt and set up for overhead reel. Daiwa BG50.

Rod is rated to cast up to 10-12 oz. Reel has 500 m of 40lb braid and 150 meters of 40lb mono.

The Mack below was 1.2 meters and really to small for the gear. They grow to almost 2 m and 35kg+.

Where we fish for Mack’s (Fraser Isl) big sharks are common, mostly whalers and tigers.

Pm me if you want details on rigs, set up etc. There was a good post on the other forum under saltwater fishing by a guy in HB using slides for kingfish.
