We fish all internationals but for our planer rod we use an old 9/0 senator set up with 200 pound braid and use a bridle rig with a #12 planer. I upgraded the drags to a 7 stack. Easier to manage /adjust with the star than it is with the lever in my opinion. Most Everyone around here does the same. Dont forget to have backing plates on your rodholder , a lot of pressure with a #12!!!!
