I had 40lb mono leader with 20lb mono spool 7000 series pen and 5 to 10kg rod.....I plan on putting a lot heavier leader next time i go.

Where abouts off St Leonards did u manage to get the sharks?? keen to give it a go soon

Hey mate,

Just head straight out to the channel from the boat ramp, there isn't really a secrete spot. All the best!
