I don't think the powerpro will be an issue. From what I understand the "6-12lb" line rating will develop the correct loading in the rod to keep fish buttoned up while only using a percentage of the line strength. Probably wouldnt run the drag past 12-15 lbs (most reels like lews have max drag settings below that any way except for the 13 fishing Concept series (22 lb))

Lure weight affects the rod more but the line rating gives a good idea of a drag setting to hopefully stay out of the breaking range.
