My Question is why is someone using 50lbs. main and 25lbs. leader for anything around here and in the ocean.I use nothing more then 25 lbs. main and 15lbs leader for everything. I have a drag on by reel and a outboard on my boat for running down fish. With no one out in the sound really to speak of aren't you suppose to fight a fish not long line then. This includes Grays Harbor. And to go beathead out to a river well I don't know if 50lbs. is enough.

Just curious
