Hell yes! When you're 1000m out it's quite a weight.
Once you've dropped the weights you feel like you'e turbo powered coming back in.

Well the first test...
 
Worked well, will just need to ake the top flotation longer for a little more bouyancy. Its sits pretty perfect now, but with the added weight of the long line it will probably pull the back down making it drive up not along.
 
Red - when towing with your kayak is there much drag?

as red rabbit said, a good 2 hour set should be right, specially if you get it out around a k and leave it over change of tide.........]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:51:54 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=46558&PID=660879&title=long-line-rig#660879 <![CDATA[Long line rig : Thats still on the shopping list!...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=46558&PID=660877&title=long-line-rig#660877 Author: Outboard Performance

Thats still on the shopping list! haha How long is the normal time to keep it out before pulling back in. I would imagine it will take 1/2 hour or so to pull the line right out.]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:49:49 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=46558&PID=660877&title=long-line-rig#660877 <![CDATA[Long line rig : We catch a few snaps, gurnard,...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=46558&PID=660872&title=long-line-rig#660872 Author: Wide Load

We catch a few snaps, gurnard, rig, kahawai etc down here, during summer. Average about 5 fish per 2 hour set. In winter we'll get full hooks of bloody red cod and spiney dogs so we don't bother!

It's a great way to spend time with the kids at the beach! We could increase our results if we fished the evenings and early mornings, however for us it's all about friends and family playing at the beach.
 
Put a flag on that OP to make it more visable.

looks like a goer outboard. I normally do a 40 mtr section at the knotiki before starting to attach traces. youll never stop baits dragging though. have never used lumo beads or floats on ones I have had in the past.]]> Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:41:29 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=46558&PID=660866&title=long-line-rig#660866 <![CDATA[Long line rig : This is the very quick 1st attempt....]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=46558&PID=660855&title=long-line-rig#660855 Author: Outboard Performance

This is the very quick 1st attempt. Top dazzle bit is flotation.  Motor, batteries and timer all in the bottom piece with weight to sink it. Waiting for sealant to dry to take it to the beach and see if she floats... fingers crossedLOL
 
We thought we'd make a rough one first to see if would even work, then develop it :-)
 
Think it'll work?

Have a look at Pauls Fishing Kites for some idea's..... & knots to use. The bait will drag just can't help it.
 
I tied knots in mine when I had one. The 1st Hundred meters was bare then a knot every metre for the next 300. Then clip on a trace every 2/3 knots. Trace would run between the knots. Never used a Kite just the Yellow plastic 3metre bag.
 
Goodluck
