I'm thinking that what I referred to as "occasional signs that there is something alive on the line" were the infamous head shakes. The rest of the time it felt like I had hooked into a big kelp forest and was slowly pulling it and the yak closer together.

The chance I snagged on something seems close to zero, as I was using an offset worm hook with the point stuck in a grub.

Plus there aren't so many big kelp forests on the floor of Mission Bay.

So I think I won't be using the 6 lb. leaders anymore.
