Magnetic Vs. Centrifugal Brakes
As do i I seem to prefer the centrifugal brakes more. Even though my revo stx and my lews TP have both i tend to rely on my centri brakes with both and well since all my shimanos have the svs system it makes sense for me

Most Important Thing You Forgot At Home?
Glasses license rain gear However the worst thing i ever did was leave my chest waders home during an october salmon trip...i waded in the salmon river for six hours that day until i couldnt tie a knot anymore because i was shaking so bad from being mildly hypothermic. I did catch a PB Coho that day lol

Seaguar Red Label
I used it for mainline for a year and a half...pretty decwnt stuff especially for the price. I never had any issues with it and i did not use line conditioner Pros: Cheap Decently sensitive Cons: Stiff rather stretchy I tried invisx and tatsu and well they rock but it costs twice as much. Red Label will treat you well especially in its pricepoint
