>>56587You've already mentionned my first concern . If there's any predatory fish in the body of water , you can be sure that it's going to eat whatever is on the end of your line while you're not there. Also
tangles, unhooking, price, loss of equipment due to large fish, breakage ( can we fix it ? no it's fucked...) , what if there's nothing to attach it to that's solid ?
as
>>56581said , just pack some line and you'll be fine making your own material. using fish as bait is also an excellent idea ( protip: don't use live crayfish as bait, they'll go get stuck between rocks and you just wasted one of the best baits nature has to offer )
buy one of these. Trilene Big game if fairly cheap in both senses of the term , but it gets the job done. Get it in 15 lb test seeing as the fish won't be getting any slack from a reel , it needs to be stronger than what you'd use on your rod.
If I can ask , where are you from ? and what kind of fish can be expected to be abundant in your lakes ?
