Would it help if i told ya that line on my reel you saw the other day is only 8kg (0.35mm) with a 15kg shock leader

Always good when you can hit your PB on 10KG and under mainline, best I ever hooked but never landed was a snapper that took me 15 minutes to get to the rocks and it bit through 80Lb trace with one chomp as it was about to be gaffed to be taken and weighed in at the beach and boat comp and that was on 10kg mainline straylining over shitloads of foul ground.
