Is this reel spooled with 15 lbs power pro enough reel for a big Jack ?
Crevalle Jack?
With a full spool and properly set drag, yes, more than enough.
Amberjack?
No.
Haha for sure!! It can catch anything on the pier. Hooked a smaller tarpon and it handled just fine (just glad it didn't run out to far). Had 15 lb. Power Pro Slick 8 Blue then switched to Spiderwire Invisibraid White 15 lb. This is the Ci4+ 4000 Stradic 2nd gen with the EVA foam handle. Super smooth reel but I own the new ones as well and the Hagane Model is an excellent reel. As well as the FJ. Just pair it with a good rod and you're set.

Tie good knots, have quality equipment/tools, and take care of said equipment and you can't go wrong.
I thought it should be , definitely not for Amber JackQuote:
