I just took a spinning rod mae, the onlt rouble is you are not allowed to fish off the beach in a lot of the island as it is a nature reserve, all the flats in the north of the island are unfishable and appaently it is the same inthe south near the crocodile farm.saying that i did hace a few jacks and a barracuda from outside the hotel apart from for the cuda i found bait to be better than spinning etc. hope this helps Nathan

I ve had the same isues on a lake that i joined this year, messed around wih strong (40lb from memory) flurocarbon leaders of a 3 foot long or so but disnt really like them as much as anything because of the safety issues so didnt even use them in the water. In the end i ve setles on those TF Gear leaders in the weed green mainly, they are pretty versatile and i mainly use them with helicopter and running lead set ups, plus you can get them on e bay for about a tenner for 3. Which although is not as cheap as making your own leadcore up (which i still prefer) is not too bad. Nathan edited to say i only really use this set up when using helicopter rigs or when using braid when fishing running rigs at range, if fishing closer-to about 60 yards or so- i use mono straight through with slack lines as said above
