So we all know that it is annoying to dive with long floatline but even in 30 ft of water you can run into a fish that can run, and run quite a distance...see hau's 41" king that played 3/4 of his reel!
I usually dive with a 40 or 60 ft float line just for something but mostly to keep it out of the way but I realized that I could be in a position to lose a fish, or worse some gear, if I took a shot at a big fish..
what occurred to me was to add a 10' bungee right behind the gun, then the 40 or 60' FL..this would add more play and length, but not too much to be really annoying...any thoughts?
oh it is my home-made FL (UV protected yellow PVC cored with 400lb tuna line) and the mako bungee.
