  • the reels strong enough, looks like a penn 12/0,might be a 9/0 same thing we use for land based shark fishing, it has more than enough drag for a halibut, but if you lock all the way down with out a harness,well have fun going swimming lol

  • ive had spinning reels get close to smoking but putting some fresh water on it fixes the whole problem

  • probably a salmon shark

  • So, how does the story end? Did the guy lose the fish, or get it?

    The problem may've been the drag setting was too low , or maybe it's that the reel is not strong enough for the fish the guy had. As soon as the line was being pulled out fast, I would've tightened the drag as much as possible ; letting the fish be able to take out line, but slowly. A good and suitably strong reel would permit this.

  • what was on the line

  • Not a halibut. You probably had a fish on the hook that was eaten by a shark or seal.

  • seabass probably

  • FAKE

  • did you land/see it? what was it????????????
