Get a good quality supple wire, it may cost a little bit more but nothing about lbg is cheap. Mono you will just lose too many rigs. You can sill land sharks on mono but you will still lose more. Afw 49 strand is a really good wire, or if you prefer nylon coated go the shogun 49 strand.

 def use wire,as u will loose far to many fish, me and dad use some chinease wire its nylon coated and is amazing, will get the brand name wen i get home. far ya 

Thanks mate, what sort of pound would it be, would I need 80-100 lb or is that to high

Thanks POM DOWN UNDER

no probs, nahh i use 218lb wire and have been bitten off up north :0 big shark, i reckon down hear 150lb would be more thn enough 

 Personally I only use 200lb+ coated wire, the length depends on the depth of the water and I normally have a few meters of 80lb wind on leader so if the shark wraps its self in the line or tail whips you won't get busted of straight away.

 yer my rigs the same, but the windon is 100lb-150lb
