If you plan on mangrove snapper fishing i would recommend something with at least 25 lbs of drag.

And wear your running shoes so you can sprint to the back of the boat (ok, now the bow with the iPilot) and turn them away from the rig. Otherwise, they are gonna whip you.
I cannot recommend highly enough getting one of the larger Shimano Tekotas with the line counter. It is a game changer. Spool with (for me) high vis braid. 80# Flouro leader, 40, or even 30, for mangroves (spinning reel with braid here).

Thanks.
That seems like pretty universal advice so far.
