I set up my new revo sx-hs with a 6'9" vendetta, and since the lake was defrosted i decided to try it out. its spooled with about 25 yards of mono(8#) and the rest 30# power pro, it seems to be digging in on itself and it snapped once already, my question is should i move up to 40# or 50# power pro? or any other suggestion? thanks for the help

    seems like you got way too much braid on there.. i usually go halfway with mono and the rest with braid..  I have 30# PP on mine and have no problems

    30lb shouldn't really dig. It may be in the way you spooled it on.

    I agree, my swim jig setup is spooled with 30lbs braid, no backing and it does not dig into itself at all.

    You have to put tension on it when you're spooling up - the more the better. If it's spooled on loose it'll dig in.
