Hey mate. What size line and leader do you run and what leader knot do you use? I hooked my first ever meter+ cod on the last weekend of season and after fighting it for ~3 minutes, getting it to surface a couple times, my braid just snapped. I assume at the knot point. I know what you mean feeling bad for the fish with the grips. I feel shit knowing that fish is probably still swimming around with my spinnerbait in its lip/ down its throat. Good luck on the spring yellas
@@DG_OUTDOORS thanks mate. I was only using 30lb braid 40lb leader. Also FG knot. Was a clean break with no loops etc so I don’t think the knot slipped, I have Berkley pro spec x8 and I’m starting to read some reviews saying it’s not great so thinking maybe it was just faulty braid. Devastating nonetheless 😂
@@ParkedKar don’t skip on the line man for how often you replace it, which isn’t often make sure ya pay the money for the good stuff and you’ll notice the difference and snap off a hole lot less
@@ParkedKar I’d have a look at shimano man that’s what I’m using get the 8 strand shimano can’t go wrong I’ve used j braid and wasn’t a fan but I do like the j thread leader
