Rep Power: 5 | This demonstrates the real danger of fishing with a harness. While that poor chap on the video was in a chair bucket harness, it can be just as dangerous with a standup harness ....... so be real careful guys. |

My Mood:  Rep Power: 4 | Famous last words from the angler to the leaderman "Y'all hang onto to that now"..... I think I'll stick to edible lutjanidae for the moment....  Saimee |

Rep Power: 5 | BTW ...... the second the leaderman puts the wrap on the leader. my drag will be backed off & the ratchet turned on. Drag will be applied via hand on spool for the moment. Always be prepared for another lunge by the fish at the leader. Harness will also be unclipped for safety reasons & manoeuverability. |
