  1. My main reasons for not using it is I don't think it gets me any more bites and even though I don't backlash much I can't afford when one good backlash destroys a spool of flouro. My bait spends far more time in the water with braid on it . more tie in the water is more fish caught.And contrary to what some say it is far easier to remove backlash from braid than any other line.
  2. Sufix 832 50 lb for everything . I only use casting gear.fish neds on it also.yellow braid with last 6 feet markered black. No need for leaders IMHO. I've tried all different lines and keep coming back to this.
  3. 50 lb Sufix 832. Ditch the leader.
  4. Send it back and get a perfect one.
  5. Same exact one I have .Definately buying more.
  6. Dobyns Sierra Micro or regular series.serious rods at that price.
  7. I wouldn't buy anything Diawa after that thread we recently had about their beyond poor customer service.
  8. Absolutely. Correct Wrong. The handle is linked direct to the pinion. That's like saying stroking a crankshaft changes gear ratios.
  9. You get snagged you wrap the line around a 1 inch wood dowel and get you lure back.I dont believe bass care about line visibility. 50 lb braid is far more sensitive than any mono and casts better. I haven't tried pro mix.
  10. I've been using braid since the 90s. Sorry if I don't believe that.
  11. 12lb braid on a baitcaster is nothing but trouble.i hope you're talking spinning or line diameter.
  12. Shoulda bought a Lew's.Yes they should have told you before work was done.
  13. I used neon lime last year in Sufix 832. It hardly faded at all and I had no bleeding. I got some yellow to start trying this year. Guys say it's even better. It also comes in white low vis green blue and camo.I always color the last 6 feet black.
  14. Lews tournament pro.Lews custom lite.Lews tournament MP.
  15. I've used 20lb braid snd 50 on bait casters. The 20 lb has far more issues and really does not cast further IMHO. I'd rather have less line issues than deal with 20lb. Then again my drags are always tight
  16. All LFS REELS are same size. All SLP ARE SAME SIZE. SLP are slightly smaller than lfs.
  17. should have bought a Lews.
  18. Lews MP and Dobyns Sierra micro at Sportsmas outtfitters under 319.
