My shark rods were the OLD "original Gator blank" Star Rod delux 49 which are originally built as bridge rods. They are 80 lbs to 130 blanks. I used a penn 10/0, 12/0 or a Penn International 130 H reel. Always used 150 Ande. We did stand up all the way with custom fit harness and butt belt. Never a problem. Love seeing the younger guys still at it, keep up the good work.

I've been watching you sense day one and I love your channel!! Keep the great work up!

Great vid... Interesting theory on the whole with mono you put more drag on a fish then with braid makes sense actually

I only shark fish from the beach 4-5 times a year so I don't have huge money invested. But one thing I did do to my 14/0 Senators is change the drag material. I bought some carbon fiber sheets and cut out new drag washers to fit the Senator and I grease them pretty heavily with Cal's drag grease to saturate them. According to my non scientific test I gained 12 pounds of drag locked down. On a 6' unlimited class blank vertical it took 44 pounds of pressure to pull line. Just a thought as a cheap mod for anyone using Senators.

I appreciate the tips, I nearly got spooled by the fish of a lifetime Friday night in new smyrna. It nearly broke my reel off the pole. Time to up my gear!

Really helpful, thought provoking. Just getting back into fishing, mostly from beach. I am going to begin fishing for sharks off of Central Florida beaches--probably going to start at Vero. Actually looking more for medium small blacktip rather than monsters--love to eat shark. I always appreciate your insight; thank you.

I like your rod holders on the wall, loooks easy to make and simple

Love your channel. We make it from TN to Pensacola a couple times a year. Upgrading to a 10’ spinning rod and penn spinfisher 10500 for our casting rig. Want to get a standup rig for paddling baits out. Only do it a couple times a year. Any thoughts on the penn squall 50vsw?? Thanks.

Roller guides were necessary years back when all we had was chrome guides and really bad drags, which put big friction and stress on the main line. They still have a place on rods you are going to put in a fighting chair or a rod holder, and they are easier on knots and terminal tackle that fits through them; also for stand-up saltwater trolling rods that need a minimum stripper and tip on big fish. Rollers are high maintenance, but I find people make more out that then needs be. We use a modified stand-up trolling rod. Even today, with the guides and materials we have, you are on the other end with that fish - your main line is not the only thing that is dealing with that friction and the stress. Roller guides take it out of the the rod guides and puts it on the drag; and lever drags rule!

Victor what hardness do you recommend for my 14/0 penn for big shark? Thank you! Love love the channel dude 👍🎣🦈

hello there Landshark I appreciate all the things you teach me on your.

You can try putting griped shrink wrap on the foam you can even put two layers for maximum durability

Hetman, matt from Texas. can you make a video explaining how to use floats for land shark fishing or why not to? Seems like a pita. Its dangerous enough yaking without them. Thanks!

150lb Dacron is it a great option for the senators. I have Dacron on my 80s and 130s

Thanks for your video bro I just want to know which rod you used for the big hammer shark. If you don't mind please can you send me the link. Thanks

you might want to spool your reels with about 500 or 600 yards of mono for abrasion resistance and use braid for backing so you have the extra line capacity

I just want to say thank you and now I have a better understanding with braid and mono I use braid and mono all the time but now I have a better understanding on my shark rod I think we will try the FG knot on my rod and reel on my rod and reel you are excellent teacher your friend in Jacksonville may the Lord continue to watch you and Brooke onthe water 👍

couple fine shark set ups...

Can anyone tell me what the carabineers attached to the rod and the reel are for and what that is called? Thank you.

I just got a penn 9/0 to fish off beach what would u line it with thanks mike

I am a fairly new subscriber to your channel, so I have not seen all of your videos. Do you have a video where you are casting these short rods? I used 10' surf rods just recently down in Florida and hooked up to some sharks. The rod seemed to hold well, but it was my reels' line capacity that failed on me on multiple occasions. Without kayaking bait out (Which I saw a group do), how would you cast out far enough with these short rods and let's say 6 oz and bait?

Hey so I have a 5 1/2 rod and I catch a lot of like 5 foot bull sharks and I would suggest using one

For a unplanned video it's spot on

were do you go shark fishing

I got the 9.0 Penn I put 50lbs mono and it looks tiny thinking of going with 80lbs??. What's your recommendation?

Is 80 lb mono enough to catch a moderate shark? Going to the beach in a few weeks with the cheapest gear i could find only for the fact that i dont know what im doing so if a break or lose something it doesnt hurt the bank until im more experienced. I have shark rigs rigged up with 12/0 hooks on i think 250 lb tooth proof and around the same test barrel swivels. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Not looking to catch too big but not wanting to break the bank

great vid man

hey Viktor! I'm just getting into the land based shark fishing game. I've been using a Penn Fierce 2 8000 which I really dig but I wanted to upgrade a bit so I just ordered a Penn Special Senator 114H2 6/0 (which I just realized is the new Chinese made version :-/) but I wanted to know your thoughts on this reel as a mid sized shark starter reel. And also your opinion on how to spool it as far as backing, top shot, mainline poundage and what not. Thanks man!

Absolutely right with the braid! Fishing off the rocks in the Caribbean I had a nice nurse hooked up. Went to grab the line with my left hand and was timing the wave so I could yank him up on the rock. Shark was tired and done but as I pulled the line my braid hit the rock and you right. Game over. Line cut and off he went for another day! But on the other hand I blasted a 7 ft nurse with same setup and I was able to get him in close to the rocks. No way I could pull him up by myself. So I said thanks for the good fight. And cut the line! Thanks for your video.

Yeah braid is definetly a no when fishing snaggy rivers becaise fish scrape your line on rocks and move into snags. Mono is super abrasion resistant. When fishing a river or a beach, any rocky areas I would definitly use mono. I've had time where I use braid and had a big carp on and it swam around a rock and completely snapped my line. When I caught big fish on mono, my line came out super abraided and beat up, but it still held up. Braid and mono both have there ups and downs, but for most types of fishing, mono is my favorite.

i like braid with a mono top shot. just replace the stretched mono witch is weaker due to stretch.

IDK if we're your from, y'all do this but our beaches don't have structure so we use all braid with a top shot for about 100 yrds of mono it's better that using 1 solid type you have the stretch of mono but the capacity and strength of braid

Your like my inspiration for shark fishing!! I hope one day I can be as good as you are with shark fishing!! Stay salty Bruh!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼

How do you thread the roller rods?

the theory of mono makes sense never thought of it that way will draging it through the the water but for the abrasion resistance you run braid under the mono so the braid doesn't get every day wear so I can last a whole season. the only problem with mono is every time it stretches it becomes weaker where that's not the case with braid that's why personally I run 1000+ yards of braid under 600ish yards of mono. at the end of the day it comes down to putting sharks on the beach doesn't matter how you get there

@LandsharkOutdoors

7 жыл бұрын

Exactly both ways work. If I had the option of going braid vs mono, I would run braid, but I'm not taking the risk with the whole reef coming into play. Braid gives you better hooksets, cuts through the water and line capacity, but it's no match for mono around structure.

So roughly how many yards of the 150lb test do you have on your 14/0's?

the most I ever used were 130lb, I could squeeze out more but then I have to be tied to a truck or need some buddies holding me, by my self 130lb is the border. And don't forget the waterdrag and how much you're line holds after being abraided, if you are like me and willing to be able to land even an 20 footer, I'd always pick my everol 20/0 and spool it with either 500lb or 300lb(depending on structure and how long I need to drop my baits) hollowcore and 800lb or 1000lb as snagleader, you can go mono too but I want to feel the fish without stretch, by the way, I use 50-80lb rods and fight smaller fish with the rod, for big ones I point the rod down, that's the only way to physically withstand this drag settings, even a rod made to handle such drags is useless cause it put's an lever against you, the only use for heavy rods is when using the gunnel of a boat

Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup kzread.infoUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.

hate to be this guy but your theory on roller guides is a good thought but doesn't work like that. rollers will cause you to loose fish it's old technology most great rod builders recommend to not have them as under a long fight with a shark they will lock up and pop your line. also rctbxxh 50-130 is good blank alot of shark fishing builders use them because there hard to break and have an amazing feel if u get a chance give one a try
