Trying to get bats so I was not using a wire leader. Guess what? Significant shark bite. Cut me off in a minute.

I dumm.. I hate me right now.

Crap... It has happened to us all and there is no way to make you feel better after that happens.

Super bummed you lost it. I've been there too many times to count since I did/didn't use steel leader!

Sorry to hear that man, next time

[spideyjg]

My own fault not rigging right but rigging quick. Not gonna do that again. Walking around the beach with temporary Tourettes.

Damn! Bummer! I have thought of going mono leader a couple times lately and then thought.... Naw i use wire just in case..

[sasquatch]

Happens, but I don't use wire in the bay. It was probably that bay hammerhead.

Bummer for sure.  I use mono when fishing squid and wire when I fish mackerel or cut bonito........V

Yeah, I usually don't use steel in the bay either. I do use 80lb mono though on my leaders. That should be enough, even for the biggest leopards.
