Ok. So here we go. I am looking to get into the sport, but I have limited information on it and I hope you guys can help me out. The following reels have the matching rods, these are all the reels I have at this moment for shark fishing. Can you guide me on what to rig them with, What kind of line. I also would want to know if I should purchase a larger rod? BPS sells shark leaders for like 21 bucks. Does anyone sell them for cheaper?

5/0

Total: 3 5/0's, 10 3/0's

Don't buy rigs, go buy some wire, swivels hooks and start twisting. Buying rigs would get extremely expesnive.

Yeah. PM Me. About the other questions. I'm gonna strip those 5/0's of the line. What should I put on there? From the backing to the leader?
