Strean line company was offering $1000 for any world record using their line... 1980 somethings when IGFA started keeping Line Class records. Mine was for Dollies on 2# test. Jack Gusigan from Kauai got several... I remember Moi and a 110 pound Hallibut on 8# test... that one took him forever to land. I had an Omilu Yearly Record, before it was considered for world class consideration. (we kept submitting so many Record Applications for omilu the finally recognized it.
I finally got one recognized... a 4lb 4oz GT on 2# test. The record lasted a year or so before some guy in Aus. got one larger.
