I just finished a rod build for lighter weight tubes and jigs that I'll be pairing up with one of my Sols and was wondering what the lightest/thinnest line is that any of you have used with this reel. I'm more concerned with line jumping the gap between the spool and side plates than I am with it digging into the spool.   Thanks.

I've got 8# mono on one and 10# mono on another.  The 10# will be coming off for lighter line.  Possibly 6# depending on what rod I put it on.  Looking at the reel, I don't think you will have a problem with 6# line.  I am using 6# mono on a TD-Z 105H and 2 older "gold" Carbonlites.  Never had a problem.  Seriously doubt you will either.

#20 braid or 6lb copoly. Both were fine.

I agree.

I fish a custom Alphas 103 (same platform as the Sol). I have fished 10# flourocarbon on it without issues. Willing to bet it would handle 8# or so.

I often used #6 of various line makers ( mono & copoly) on my TDX, and my Sol BC reels, I had no problems whatsoever.

8 lb. Fluoro with the stock spool. I have a 105H spool in it now that will be getting 6 lb. as soon as the ice melts. So, June. 

I have a few Alphas, and they handle #6 mono or flouro with no problems. Haven't tried 4.

8# mono is my standard for Medium power rods.  Reels with 8# include, but not limited to, Purple Alphas, Curado 51E, TD-S, Fuego, Sol, 1600 Morrum & 1600 Black Max and Alphas ito 103ai.  Have never had a problem with any.  You wouldn't either.
