That's  a really neat picture !!

Ah ha! That's it. A "rub line". I've been reef-rubbed in the last month about 5 times. Gettin bit by slow trolling mostly ~ 5" Blue-green snappers. Thought they were Great Barracudas, cause that's what the divers were seeing out there near Akule bait balls. Whatever they were, they were too heavy to control with Jiggy 30 - 40 lb. rigs. So I gave up, not liking the idea of leaving hooks & long leaders in 'em. My ego was sayin "They can't beat me every time!, just land one for catch & release, use a wire leader if you gotta".
The rub line is mono. right?

Yes Gfish rubline is mono, 8-15' depending on the grounds. My connection from main to rubline is a 3 turn spider hitch, braided double line to 10 turn Albright. For shallow water 80-120lb, 200-300lb for deep water slide bait.

Thanks, Kyle. Great info. Actually, the last one was on a 113H tank, still no control. I lost my 20 ft. mono. leader and ?ft. of braid after 30 sec. of clicker screaming, kayak towing fun, before I started feelin that awful intermittent reef rub. Just not ethical to keep tryin when you're undergunned. "I'll be back".
