Default Tackle Size

Also bear in mind that you don't need huge reels for the drag you need it for line. I use all tld 50's but even on mine i back up the 50 hi vis with 130 kevlar. You can get a lot of kevlar on a small reel just remember that if you get a screamer you will need to open up the reel and make sure there is no damage. At 15lbs of drag on a tld 25 a 200 pound fish can put a hurting on that reel. But don't be afraid to give it a shot. A unoffical world record was just caught 126llbs on 8lbs test in 20 min. So anything is possible. When i get more on that record i will post

tight lines
