Nice catch! I took the family down to San Luis pass for the week in August and decided to bring a salt striker rigged up on a pro angler not really planning on fishing. I had a few rigs similar to yours. The first night the kids are in bed and the wife unit says let's go fishing. We stayed on the water so we hauled some beer down to the private beach at our house. I threw the cast net and caught some nice mullet. I cut one up and within 15 minutes...fish on. I caught about a 40" shark and the set up handled it no problem. it did manage to get into my mono when i had it in the surf and busted loose but the equipment handled it just fine.
Great catch man. Nice work!
