Welcome to BFT, glad that you joined and made your first post. I would think that 15 pound is on the top side of what one would need to land a fish on The Mighty Jordan River. The reason that one might require such heavy line would be because the fish is going to be able to swim to an area that it could get wrapped around vegetation or whatever else one might find in there and break off; otherwise, a properly set drag should keep any fish from breaking off.
