Not suggesting you guys were using light gear as its not stated but 50lb is what you want up there and skull them in before the sharks find them
Was my first time there Rig, was on 10kg.
Next time i went i upsized line size and didn't stuff around so much.
Still lost fish but to the resedent groper not sharks. lol

What kinda shark is that?
I think it's an Oceanic Whaler, Not 100% sure as there are many different types.
Initial estamate was 80 to 90kg. At steep you are about 30ft above the water, hard to judge the size.
Just sorting some vid of the groper and will post it later.
