Thread: Softbaits on longline or kontiki

I set mine in kaiks as a drop line ( weight -25 hooks and float ) straight down to 80 mts . Worked well no bait left and 15 fish . I'm going to go deeper ,next time I'm up hopefully . Thinking of putting a rock in a plastic supermarket bag as the weight . Working on the therory when I go to pull up it will tear and I don't have to lift the heavy weight up . Last time the sash weight felt ridiculous heavy after 80 mts

Sounds like my newbie game fisherman trick Any newbie that falls asleep is woken to a screaming 80W and told to get in the chair, all gear quickly brought in for authenticity, and then its on! Amazing how much drag you can get from a shopping bag
