Does anyone have any opinions or experience with the Shimano TLD 50LRSA? This is the model with the 80lb drag cam. I am looking at buying a lever drag for shark fishing from a boat, and later on some genera loffshore stand up fishing, and this reel has been recommended by a local captain, with several other captains running these reels in my area. How are they with durability? Any problems with the graphite frame using 80lb. line? Shimano states 30lb drag at strike and 40lb. at full, very impressive figures. I was set on Internationals or Tiagras, but if the TLD 50LRSA will work well, I would consider these, as I can buy 2 for 1 compared to the gold reels. Just want to be sure they will last and perform well. Thanks
