I dobbel my down line inside another bigger braided(200 lbs also) line, on one meter long. Tight them with a classic grand-Ma knot each sides and use Berkley Trilene knot on the stainless steel shackle. This technic of dobbel line takes the breaking point 30% higher(says some experts...) But is usualy used with a nylon mono inside the 1 meter braid sleeve. On the shackle, a sprit ring 290 lbs then an Ausssi swivel 900 lbs. My rigs are in 2mm / 1 meter Stain.Steel wire down to the huge lure and the hooks: All aluminium double barrel crimped... Why steel wire? Because the fish who bury itself in sharp corals, back rocks, can break/cut the usual nylon mono. Also, the teeth on Seawolfs and huge halibuts are serious business. The Berkley knot is simple and hold my weight in the air: 100kg. So it hold enough for my fish who's weight is less in it's proportion inside the water... It's also a knot who's very easy to take off after using. Back to the watch! I see often your Sub Hatch lately: That's a love story that! With all the extra cool watches you have, that's the one who got to sleep with you?
