Shark Fishing Tackle

Tackle needed for sharking on White Water

If you have no shark tackle dont worry?

White Water charters has all the gear that is needed for a days fishing, but if you want to use your own please check with skipper if the tackle is right for the job.

White Water only uses top of the range gear likes of Shimano.

Traces are made by myself and not bought type shark rigs.

Wire to 10/12/0 hooks.

Shark fishing can be around 200/450 feet depending on time of year wind direction baitfish. White Water rarely fishes the same grounds twice the trick is to find and catch sharks on different grounds North/West/SW, we have caught sharks on all locations.

We have a range of Shimano rods and reels on board White Water 3 for our anglers to use, free of charge but let the skipper know in advance.

Please find details Shimano Boat Rods and reels below:

 

Shimano TLD

Shimano TLD 25

The new lower priced and highly popular TLD 15 is spot-on for mid-Channel pollack and conventional "up and down" fishing. Consultant Dave Lewis has landed 100lb plus Namibian sharks on his! The TLD 20 suits medium weight pirking, blue sharks and deep water where its fast retrieve and wide diameter spool are appreciated. An outstanding reel capable of handling any European fish, the TLD 25 fits the bill for pirking, conger, skate, sharks and overseas sorties.

Shimano TLD-2 Speed

Shimano TLD2

The same drag system on standard TLD reels but heavily engineered for even tougher work. They offer the option of switching between high and low speed retrieve as situations dictate. If you are pumping a 200lb skate through 400ft of water, you'll need low. A high-flying billfish that changes course to rush the boat demands high. If you want just one reel for home and abroad, make it a TLD 2 Speed.

Shimano Tyrnos

Shimano Tyrnos

Tyrnos features a gear ratio of 5.0:1 and is built for power thanks to its 4 A-RB bearings, oversized gears, die-cast machined aluminium handle and ergonomic rubber power grip. As part of the metal series of reels,the sturdy frame keeps all moving parts in precise alignment to ensure long-term efficiency. The Tyrnos is ideal for numerous saltwater angling applications.

Shimano Tyrnos 2-Speed

Shimano Tyrnos 2 Speed

A metal design construction is the base of all Tyrnos reels, creating stability and durability that ensures that all parts are perfectly aligned for a smooth movement and long lifetime. The ability to be able to swiftly change from high to low gear and then back again is a massive advantage in many offshore angling situations, while the advantages of a silky smooth yet powerful lever drag when fi ghting big fish are too numerous to mention.

Shimano Torsa

Shimano Torsa

Torsa can be summed up as speed, power, durability and castability. When developing the Torsa Shimano engineers succeeded in designing different types of drag cams, which can be put on the reel to create different drag curves. This system looks set to revolutionise the way we play fish, especially on light, sporting tackle. Eight drag cams are available, all with very different characteristics. The extremely strong frame and spool are created by using diff erent techniques; cold forging and machining of the finest kinds of aluminium, while the High Efficiency Gears are the biggest Shimano have ever designed for fishing tackle. The gears are housed in a low-based gearbox, creating an excellent balance that offers you more control. In size Torsa is a small reel that in reality can cope with really big fish.

Shimano Biofibre

Shimano Biofibre

Biofibre is 'state of the art' in terms of rod construction and is 4 times stronger than any other carbon material. It involves the random distribution of 'non woven' biofibres and mid-short fibres that don't cross each other, but 'float' in an elastomeric (synthetic rubber) resin to reinforce the carbon fibres in all directions. This process produces amazing strength ensuring rods constructed using the Biofibre process are incredibly strong and durable. Because of the significant increase in strength, you would naturally assume that weight has been sacrificed to achieve this remarkable level of durability. You'll therefore be even more surprised to learn that Biofibre is 2.4 times lighter than the lightest carbon fibre.

Shimano T-Curve

Shimano T Curve

The unique Shimano Tcurve process combines special graphite cloth with a revolutionary resin formula and manufacturing technique. The three-ply weave undergoes a clinical curing process to produce a unique "Dynamic" blank with massive pressure thresholds. Unlike others, Tcurve resin molecules retain elasticity after the manufacturing process. The outcome is 20-40% more compression resistance than regular carbon, meaning any Shimano rod bearing the Tcurve logo packs significant hidden power reserves, perfect for specimen and commercial carping applications.

Shimano T-Diaflash

Shimano T-Diaflash

TDiaflash is a blend of Tcurve and the much-loved Diaflash construction that creates one of the lightest, most resilient blanks currently on the market.

 

Shimano Fine Crystal Carbon

Shimano Fine Crystal Carbon

Virtually unbreakable under normal use, Forcemaster rods are built using a unique carbon fi bre known as Fine Crystal Carbon. Fine Crystal Carbon has a more compact structure than other carbons resulting in increased resilience.
