Texas surf shark fishing thread

Ok guys/gals I am hoping the sharks are still going to be hanging in the surf this late, headed down on Thursday. I am about to post up pictures of the new leader rigs i made up hoping they will work wanted to get some feed back thanks.

So i ended up going steel after too many cut leaders on straight mono. I have 3.5 feet coated stainless steel cable, with a 13/0 non stainless circle hook, tied to 500lb mono leader, all load bearing connection points are 400lb swivels. Total length is 18 feet of leader. Used the mouse trap method outlined on texassharkfishing. Spider weight can move up and down a portion of the mono leader. Hoping this will work any last minute advise would be greatly appreciated.

Set ups look good, should work.
Still lots of toothies out there to be caught.
Like the simple, yet effective rod holders. How is it mounted to truck?

Good luck!

Its bolted with a 4 inch bolt that has washers on it and runs through the trucks tie downs.

That set up looks good. Nothing wrong with those leaders either. Good luck out there

Where are you going? I was down last weekend and going again this weekend. Surf is loaded with them. I caught a 39” bull red and had a good run with a massive shark. We caught 8 total I think all together. I’m trying to post pics but for some reason these pics don’t want to post. Not doing anything different. Oh yeah and that big one took off with my brand new leader I just got from Oz.
