In the last 7 days I've been offshore 3 times. Under normal circumstances my equipment performs quite well for the species we catch, kings, bonita, blackfins, amberjacks and cobia. I have been spooled twice and had my line snapped anther 2 times. I've caught 40-50# tarpon on inshore gear and I'm using offshore equipment................what's going on, lol. 32# of Penn conquer drag and Avet reels don't come close to stopping them, I guess 300 yards of line isn't enough.
