Default Re: Most powerful fish pound for pound.

tinny, i dont know how big jack crevalle get but i was down on singer island a few years back and there is a huge "domesticated" school of them swiming around sailfish marina. some of them had to go close to 30-35 pounds. theres a guy who pushes an ice cream cart on the bulked who sells one dollar bags of bunker or ballyhoo.
bought me a bag of hoo and hooked one to the business end of a stout 20 pound spinner. tossed it to em and got a good sized (25 - 28 pounder) pick up.
gave a five count, set thew hook and BOOM!
son of a gun stripped off 350 yards of mono and when he got to the spool all you heard was "PINK".


* * * * * GONE!

8 pounds of drag and cupped the spool and never even slowed him down.
