All fishermen are liars except for you and me, and to tell you the truth, I'm not sure about you, hahaha

Yes Striper, all the rumours are pretty true, they go real hard, I had the drag set at 12kgs at first, then cranked it up a bit on the first run, so might be 14kgs now, they pull hard out right up to the end, until they are in the boat, pretty good when in the boat, which I thought was strange, Kurt told us not to think they fight like a Kingfish, and I really think he is right, real savage strikes, with 80lbs braid near pulls the rod out of your handsTongue
