Willam---i just want to make sure of some fine points on ''catching unassisted'' sharks
can someone leader a shark for you
can someone tailrope a shark for you
can someone help hold the rod up in the junior div
i think last year you had an action shot--- as part of the photo's needed-- are they needed this year?
thanks--
sonny
To make things clear 'Unassisted' simply means only one person can be on the rod fighting the shark for the duration of the battle until the fish is leadered.IGFA rules apply -no one can touch the rod during the fight except for the angler who hooked it.Junior anglers CANNOT HAVE ANYONE HOLD UP THE ROD.This is a fishing competition and anglers must feel the thrill of the fish and learn about overcoming adversity and in fishing it means fighting hard to attain victory when the Catch is finally made.Again IGFA rules apply NO ASSISTANCE ON THE ROD. Of course you can have the leaderman grab your leader (not the line) when the shark is in the surf.
ACTION SHOTS (PICS)ARE REQUIRED FOR LINE CLASS ONLY
Spinning Division
50 lb test Division
80 lb test Division
