Ohm Swasti Astu (I'm sure I butchered the spelling)

I take it GT is Giant Trevally or Ulua in Hawaii? Those fish are just plain mean. You'll definitely want cable. I've heard of 30lb fish snapping floppers off shafts.

In the situation you described, while the bungy would have given you more play it could also allow the fish to make it into the cave. That alone isn't a bad thing unless the cave is very deep or the currents are ripping like they often do on Bali.

Good luck! I hope you can get a hold of Daryl and he'll be more help since he does hunt GT (Ulua) and tuna.
