If you shark fish a lot I would look into rods with wind on guides. You can purchase 25' cable wind on leaders and reel them right through the guides up to the bite leader. This works out great if fishing with only 1 or 2 others. You basically have no need for a leader man. You can also "thumb" the cable against the foregrip to put as much pressure on the fish as you can take at boatside. Penn doesn't have a suitable rod for this application in a stand up version. I have 5'1" bent butt rods but I think a little extra length would be better, especially with outboards. Try to get all the same rods as it can be a pita to adjust the harness every time you hook a fish.
