the magnum will be much more heavy duty. A rapala magnum cd-14 in blue mac has been my money bait for many different species.

A Knife is ESSENTIAL, but as Brinkman will tell you, it doesnt have to be too sharp ;-)

I'd be down to go. About a month or two more and the pup T's will be infesting LJ. Hopefully. I'd say your safest bet for a 100 pound shark would be a thresher. They have that tail, but a much smaller mouth and less teeth to worry about, as well as a little tamer. Use about 40, 50 pound line, a heavy duty swivel, 100 pound floro leader crimped to the swivel and a large hook with a big mac on it. Too many smaller sharks will grab the rapala first. Not to say a big one won't grab it, but you get the idea. put a couple slashes in the macs sides to get a blood trail goin and have fun.
