Dont know what that big one was, but as Piemma said, somethings wrong,

Just to compare - I have been using a light st croix, 10lb mono, Shperos 4000, 50lb mono leader and have landed over 50 (im not exaggerating) blufeish the last two weeks. 20 were from the surf and all fish from the surf were over 8lbs, some much bigger. I can imagine a drag screaming that much on a blue.

I also dont get using 50lb braid, seems like overkill. 20lb mono is all you need in my mind.
