I've been using 25# seag. f/c for the past two years without any problems. I guess I haven't run into any fish to teach me a lesson yet! I fish the rockiest of places in RI and have landed fish up to 33# without a break-off. Am I just lucky (or ignorant)? Seems like everyone else is using much heavier. Usually start with about 6' and after a night of tying direct end up with 4'.
