Black Fin Shark & Raggie Trace Demonstration.

For all the shark anglers or anglers new to shark fishing, this is the video for you! It is near impossible to cast a steel trace long enough to prevent a black fin or raggie from rolling in your trace and cutting you off. The trace would need to be 3m long making casting not possible. BUT in this Trace video with legendary shark angler, Ray Thompson, you will learn everything you need to make a trace ideal for these two shark species. The trace is just over 3m long but has a very unique trick to folding it into 3 parts making casting a breeze. 

This video is part 1 of a 2 part series. Part two is the baiting up of this trace. 

Here are useful links to the very necessary figure 8 knot which Ray uses in just about all of his traces and a snell knot which is a little different to the one you probably know (but way easier to tie).
