That type of reel is my preferred set-up for anything that bites the hook in fresh water. I usually rig it with 10# mono-filament line or a similar thickness/stiffness of other lines. I don't know about salmon size fish. All my experience is in the Southeast or Midwest for fresh water and off of a dock or brackish canal for saltwater.
