...to get spooled :lol: This is not completely true, but that is pretty light tackle. 40 lb line isn't light, but on those penn 6/0s you probably don't have too much line on there. I prefer to use a reel with at least 600-700 yards of line being able to put at least 25 lbs of drag on the fish. However, I will soon be using one light tackle set-up, and when I say light, I mean light. You'll see when I have the pictures of the reel next to a swordfish.
