I'd Gladly burn out a reel, break a rod, and loose a spool of line just for the chance to accidently snag that monster that bites. I generaly fish with lighter tackle anyway, but find with a little finess you can usualy land big pike or catfish with it. Then again, a 30 lbs fish on gear you were trying to catch a 1 lb pearch with is probably alot different then a 200lbs fish on gear you were trying to catch a 30 lb fish on....But I'd try to catch jaws on a line I was trying to catch minnows on, if the opporatunity presented itself.
