Feel the line....it will tell you what you had!( assuming you are using mono)

Chaffed up like crazy...100 lb test leader

[Gumada]

Chafing could be the leader rubbing against and getting whacked by the tail as it runs away from you.

Mine was 2ft of 174lb wire, 2ft 250lb mono then 15ft of 100lb mono and finally 50 lb braided main. All my cuts happened at the braid. Lost a lot of gear

Went to Brigantine last night. Not much activity this time. One smaller Sandbar shark was caught tagged and released. Was the only bite of the night. Season's definitely starting to change.
But no bite offs, so the big schools of whatever it was are gone.

It was fun while it lasted. C'mon stripers!

sounds like sharks.... but could be both sharks and blues feeding in the same zone on the bait currently schooled up

Fished the jetty yesterday morning on the outgoing tide. Snapper blues everywhere, along with a small flounder. All on mullet. Going to try again next week!
