Bust off!
Hi Guys,
Haven't been fishing for awhile but managed a few during my time off work. Fished off the sand pumping jetty (Spit).
Got dusted by something BIG!
Will edit my videos from my fishing trip in Japan soon.
Enjoy!

Re: Bust off!
Ok quick tip mate, set your drag and DON'T grab the spool.
The fish will nearly always run away from you and no too much there to snag you.
Let it wear itself out then the fish will be yours.

Probably a good Tailor...
You might have to upgrade the leader.
