    It's been years but I've caught them surf casting off the Waianakarua coast down here with 25 lb line and a wire trace
    Must admit to being busted off a few times as well though.
    It's not so bad when they run up and down the beach, it's when they head for Chile that the trouble starts.
    gadgetman and stingray like this.

    A good 100lb leader and a cirle hook would do. Only need steel if your gut hooking the poor sods
