  1. Braid if you want no stretch or sufix advance mono if you want low stretch and low vis.
  2. I don't know about Lew's service because I've never used them. But in the 5 years it's been since I switched I've never had a problem. I will never go back to Another brand if Lew's keeps it up.
  3. Lew's speed spool LFS. Amazing reel for $99.
  4. All baitcast for me. I use 8 lb test on a medium action rod and cast 1/5 oz ned rig with it.
  5. yup it pretty much destroys it if its a bad one.
  6. Clunn is 100 percent correct. It makes a huge difference.
  7. No they are not. Different specs different parts.
  8. Buy a Lew's and outcast them all
  9. Bass pro carbonliite or Falcon Bocoo
  10. Falcon makes excellent rods. Their warranty service is amazing. My first bucco I bought 8 years ago. One of the guide inserts broke . 8 years later they sent me a new rod even though it was out of warranty.
  11. Haven't had it on long enough to comment. I have seen reviews where guys have used it all last year without issue .
  12. Or you have weak spots in your 6lb flouro.
  13. I just spooled up some 14 lb on 2 baitcasters. Can't believe how well this stuff casts. It's also really sensitive.
  14. Seguar makes good flourocarbon lines. I hated all the others. Sufix has sufix advance mono out. It's a copolymer. It has very little stretch and I really have to say it's more sensitive than flouro imho. The only thing is flouro is less visible. Sufix advance handles awesome. Try both.
  15. I forgot. But they had tubes over 8 ft because they have ocean rods. I cut mine down as short as possible. Shipping costs suck but you want rods protected.you don't need 3 inches of padding on each end.a piece of newspaper is fine.
  16. I go to dicks and I ask for any rod tubes they have.
  17. Doesn't say what guides it has or reel seats.
  18. Lew's tournament MB or tournament pro.
  19. I almost never get them out giving them slack.
  20. Heavy extra fast action rod .heavy flouro or braid. Set that hook and pull. The more time you fart around the more they wrap around cover.
  21. That's what they say but I never had a problem with 8 strand braids. There are plenty of good ones out there.Tuff line domin8 is my fav.
