If chaseing Kings and AJ's in deep water with metal jigs I think your gear is going to come up short quite a bit,if you target Snapper and Pearlies with those big plastics in deep water you'll be laughing.I use a Saltiga Z40 with 80lbs braid and 150lbs leader on a T curve and drop 300 to 500 gram jigs in 60 to 100 metres of water,I still get blown away regularly.I think it will be prety hard to specificly target small fish if your after Kings etc, all the places I fish throw a mix of sizes up.
