braid vs mono - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

slobslayer · 05-29-2012, 11:37 AM

I've been doing a lot of experiementing lately to try to improve my game. I use PLine fluorcarbon coated which works well for me and saves some coin. I never had any good experiences with circle hooks. I use a single bait hook for sardines and run a trap rig for anything over say 6 or 7 inches but I used treble hooks. I'll try the bait hook trap rig but how do you hook it to the bait? I'm connecting and hooking fish but am losing them when bringing them in. I know halibut can be difficult but I've never lost so many fish.
