  1. Rod line rating

    Sam A. posted a topic in Fishing Rods, Reels, Line, and Knots
    I believe the line rating for my rod is somewhere between 8-18 pounds. It does not specify mono or braided. If I put 30 pound mono or braided on that rod, will it break the rod? Sorry if it’s a dumb question I am new to this. Thank you in advance.

  2. After fishing

    After I’m done fishing in freshwater, should I do anything to clean my rod and reel?Will the baitcaster reel corrode if I don’t clean it?Also is it ok to keep the hook on the rod or should I take that off? Thank you in advance.

  3. Line Capacity

    Sam A. posted a topic in Fishing Rods, Reels, Line, and Knots
    I am new to using a baitcaster and really freshwater fishing all together. I just bought an Abu Garcia silver max which says it has a mono capacity of 12 pounds. Can I put 16 pound mono on the reel without any problems? Thank you.
