More Info www.fishingtack... Kontiki longline fishing for snapper from Bream Bay using the ShoreThing automatic longline setting device. Good catch of snapper from one 25 hook set.
A bit different to what we used off that beach in the 1960s, had 25 hooks back then too so that has not changed although normally had a fish on each hook when we wound the line in.
That's backwards to the GPS kontiki you winch the line in taking the hooks off as you wind in,the kontiki the last thing to come out the water usually spose it's worth it not loosing your kontiki though....that ways a lot of work specially after a few cold ones lol but good catch anyway
