I think you answered your own question.

I use Okuma 7' (bait) and 8' (iron) rods with Cedros 10 and 15 size reels loaded with 65lb Izor braid and 6' of 40Izor xxx.

Anyone can horse in a fish but it takes talent to get it done on a setup that most might think to be too light.

I don't fish yt all that much, but when I do, I'm not in a "talent" show. I really could care less what the next guy thinks of me, my equipment, my boat or my methods. I'm out there to put as much meat on the deck and have as much fun doing it as possible.

hope this helps.
