The Penn Snapper rod we tested is rated 20-50lb.
We managed to get about 40lb out of it before
but the reel used couldn’t give us more drag. That
happened 3 times and we decided to stop. The
rod certainly can take more but to reach 50lb, I
am not too sure. Even at 40lb the bend was closing in onto the fore grip. 50lb without breaking
perhaps but the rods power would have been long
drained.
