It is time to restring some offshore lines .... They will be used for pulling some baits and dropping for snapper and what not .... I think 60 would be good what says the OB ?

65lb power pro is pretty solid and versatile.

60# is fine for the mainline. I would run a 200# leader on it though.

Really depends totally on target species. 60lb is a good middle of the row poundage. That being said I wouldn't use my snapper reels for pulling/trolling. The abrasive reef/rigs tear line and doesn't make for a good trolling line thereafter.
