Choosing Line

Featured Replies

I now have three new casting set ups, but im not sure what line I want to put on them. I have one 150 yrs spool of 15lb InvisX already.

1.) 7'1 MF *** Black with a T3 Ballistic 7.1:1

I plan on using this for flukes, weighted and unweighted, and other t rigged soft plastics.

2.) 7'2 MH XF Shimano Crucial with a Gen 2 Revo SX 6.3:1

This will be my jig rod.

3.) I havent chosen a rod yet but it will be 7' M MF. Either a Cranking Stick or a Shimano Clarus as of right now. I already have the reel which is a BPS Pro Qualifier 6.4:1.

Mainly square bills and shallow cranks on this set up.

Any help would be awesome. Thanks

12# Yozuri Hybrid. Good line, not to expensive.

For your first setup, I would use 30Lbs braid so you can have the power to reel it in fast and also since braid has no flex you can flip and pitch it better than fluorocarbon or monofilament. For your second setup, I honestly don't use flukes so I can't give you any advice there. For your third setup I would also use 30Lbs braid so you can have the right action with no flex.

Yo zuri 15lb is some of the worst line ive ever used. My 12lb isnt bad but there are much better options in the price range. I emailed them about how poor the quality was on my recent spool and havent heard back from them yet.
