Glad you got one

Took you long enough lol

Just did running sinker with squid as bait, worked like a charm, I nearly caught a big one but the line snapped

What lbs line were you using?

15 lbs

What kind of rig are you thinking of using to catch the leather jackets?

Patternoster Rig should suffice

There are bigger ones around.

The big question is have you been out on a boat yet?

In the time it took me to read this thread I could have got a second job, saved up and bought a boat. Did need two pots of coffee to complete and the ending has been anticlimactic at best, at worst perhaps, we are still at the beginning.

Welcome to the thread! You have noticed I have caught many different types of fish in this thread correct? What other climax were you expecting?
