Thats funny, thats exactly what I did last Friday. All new line and leaders, re-lubed the reels and set out for a weekend of fishing on the pisquataqua river with my brother on his work boat. While trolling with a tube-n-squid I get a massive hit, line peeling like the #^&#^&#^&#^&ens. My brother keeps maneuvering the boat about for 15-20 minutes just to keep this beauty from spooling me, I can barely hold on to this fish as it swims from one end of the harbor to the other. I'd reel in 50 yards and she'd take back 100. I'm using 50# mono with 70# flouro and this sucker is making for the lobster pots. All I could do was try to hold on and you guessed it, SNAP! F-in lobster pots
Felt like the biggest fish I've ever hooked.
