I have been useing bleeding wire( it's just red coated stainless leader) with 30# barrel on one end and 30# swivel on the other, and a good circle hook about 1.5" in cir. That has worked for me so far , I catch more then I loose.

Hey Turtle, nice shark, I'm coming down end of June, what type of steel or wire leader etc. makes up a "shark rig"?
Thanks!

He weighed out at 10.32 #'s, but I already ate him,I don't think it counts.I will definitley keep the fish if I ever catch another one.It hit a whole white trout about 8" long on a shark rig,I even thought it was a shark until it got right up to the boat.

Turtle, Mitch and I went out last night about 6ish p.m. and I got about a 3 footer at Garcon. Caught him on a small white trout. He's marinating and will be grilled Monday night. Those black tips are perfect for the grill. Tried the bridge this a.m. and not even a white trout bite.

Went out friday night to #50 on the bridge and spent some quailty time on the water with a childhood best freind and boated one 3.5' blacktip and released 4 more a 10# sail cat and many white trout.
