Slide Baiting for Bronzies
Posted: Thu Jan 17, 2019 8:28 am
Hey Guys,
Have been inspired by some of the bronze whalers caught off the surf lately.
Been doing a bit of reading into slide baiting and how to apply it to catch myself a shark.
Found an excellent blog post on slide baiting , well worth a flick if anyone is interested. Its got numerous applications, targetting sharks is just one of them.

I grabbed a Tekota 700 that was sitting unused in the shed and have paired it with a Daiwa Surf rod that can cast up to 5oz.
Ordered all the sinkers and slides from Busted fishing , cant wait for the long weekend.
I am heading up to Marlo and hopefully can get a livie or a big deadbait with a circle hook in it sitting in gutter somewhere.
comments on baits, tactics, rigs and leaders. welcome.
Wire or no wire?
the consensus i have come to is 150lb leader and single circle to a tailor hooked in the tail.
report to follow :water:
