Rod Ratings & Braided Line

Featured Replies

I am curious to see what your rod is rated for line wise, and what test braid you use. Feel free to post multiple setups if you have them.

Also say if the rod is casting or spinning please

Line weight ratings on a freshwater rod are meaningless other than to loosely suggest possible applications. You're safe to run the braid of your choice on any rod you have. I discourage the practice of locking down drags regardless of line choice as it puts unnecessary stress on the line, rod and reel.
