Good bloody King! I managed to hook two of them up the same day on light tackle while searching for salmon. There was no stopping them on 12lbs mono. Had to buy a new reel after that!
They pull the hardest. I used to dread hooking one when I was a little boy fishing with handlines from my dad's boat. Having one eat the small fish I caught. Horse size ones would come and hang around the boat. It was always five seconds of deeply cut fingers then cut off on the reef.
