jewgaffer Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Another good day boys. It's the seafarer that's making you keen. They're such a good boat on the water. Cheers jewgaffer nite nite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mako1 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Sounds like you both had a good day. Pitty the bigger fish busted you off,but that's still a nice king you caught. Congrats on your new seafarer. We've had the 6m version for seven years and absolutely love it.There great offshore boats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james7 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well done the both of you. It must have been great fun. Here is the pic of the best king of the day, 67cm taken on 7kg braid outfit running 6kg of drag on a Fishfinder custom snapper master. I don't know that much about drag settings or using braid, so excuse my ignorance, but is that right, 7kg braid and 6kg drag? Do you generally set the drag higher for braid than for mono? I was always told to set the drag to about 1/3 of the line strength. Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
