I have a problem with the ( big dogs) getting around my cable and tangling up or breaking off. I was wondering if any one had a tip to stop this from happening? Thanks

Duck,

I have had this problem and still due occasionally but we pretty much solved the tangles problems by speeding up from 1.0-1.3 to 1.4-1.7. Also had a lot more tangles with 1 fathom spreads than with 1.5 or 2. Dogs will bite at 0.8 to 1.0 just fine but create too many tangles to make it a functional working speed.

The other thing is to use 50 lb leads all around.

Hope this helps.
