Very similiar to what worked for Julie's women's record halibut, it was in about 10' feet of water, a 1oz chrome torpedo was all that was needed, on a floating Rapala mackerel pattern. She was using 12lb Maxima on the reel, I believe 15lb P-line leader from the 3-way to the lure, and 10lb or 12lb 3-way to the sinker. The 12lb line on the reel tested a little higher at the IGFA, so they listed it under the 16lb class category. As far as we know it is still holding up as the largest ever caught by a woman on any craft under any pound test line.
We've caught many much, much smaller ones this way too, along with the ones where a bait hook and live sardine was substituted for the lure. Aaron
