Hello,
I have a dream ... to catch a Halibut from shore.
My plan is to buy a Shimano Baitrunner XT-A Medium LC to my Wychwood 12fot/3lb rod.
have thought of using an Pulley rig with bait and 40-55lb braided line+20foot/ 40lb chock leader .
What do You guys think of this?
Thankfull for all help and thoughts with this project
As long as you are not chasing the big Alaskan halibut should be ok. My dad used a Mitchell 302 with 25 lb mono on the California Coast. Bill
I`m going to fish i Norway where the Butts are from small to what one of my friend got last year 80kg (175lb) and 180cm long.
But they are mostly 10-30lb.
I saw a guy catch a 100# butt from the shore on a Penn 7500SS while fishing for king salmon. It took while but he did it.
smaller buts on Carp tackle sounds like fun, but you may want to go a bit higher than 3.0 TC for the rod & 60-80# for the braid
