  1. I love Sufix Advance Mono.Its extremely low stretch and sensitive. Great abrasion resistance also.
  2. 6 or 8 lb Sufix Advance Mono.Super low stretch and handles better than flourocarbon.
  3. A Lews MP at Sportsmans outfitters for $120 cannot be beat.
  4. Sounds like a good jerkbait and lipless rod.
  5. That rating does not mean you can't use 6lb line. It's a spool capacity rating.its not a rating of what it can cast. I use a Lews Tournament Pro to cast 1/10 oz Ned rigs on 8lb line.
  6. Sportsmans Outfitters has it for 159$ get the Lew's.
  7. Go with the Lew's.
  8. Smaller and more compact. 6 pin 27 position externally adjustable centrifugal brakes.l would also get the 6.8 to 1.i think it looks nicer. They are all good reels it's just my preference.
  9. dodgeguy posted a Community Map marker in Members
  10. i would go with a lews tournament pro.it would be fine for that and casts a mile
  11. I just tested 12 feet of Sufix advance mono with a scale. Pulled to 8lbs and it stretched 9.25 inches . at 9.6 lbs it broke at knot before I could measure it.
  12. Anyway possible you could test Sufix Advance Mono ? I'd really like to see how it compares under your test. I know it has the least stretch of any non braid I've used.
  13. 39 lbs of drag on a spinning reel with a graphite frame. That's laughable on so many levels. If it's true it's a recipe for snapping a neck.
  14. Which I would think would eventually knock out the insert.
  15. So far it's slow as can be. Can't get my notifications.. Found it very hard to load site on android phone.
  16. You're welcome. IMHO Lews tournament pro lfs is the best value out there.
  17. It will be a stiffer mh extra fast tip
  18. Smallies aren't hard to catch if you fish where they are. I like both. But if I'm somewhere that has smallies I prefer to catch them.
  19. Thats perfect but I still wet it.
  20. Never had a Palomar knot fail in 30 years.
