I saw my friend last night fight a 30#er on a huge spinner spooled with 20# mono. I think it was a baitrunner. Anyway, the fish took about 1/3-1/2 his spool. As I'm new to surf fishing, I wanted to know if my 5500ss could handle a nice fish.

ps: let's assume I don't get broken off due to any mistakes.

thanks in advance.
