yeah the big ones are always harder but BIG release weight on alvey winch took him to the depths OK.
this is what I have on my boat aswell, alvey reel 200lb mono + release weight on a "sawn off rod"....haha...sawn off just above the first guide. easy and fast to retrieve.

You must have been the group after we got off.
How good is the Top Gun and the Crew.
We had a Epic trip over there and the jigging is insane.
