 |
|
I need some advice from the brain trust here. I have a new Avet 80W and it is my first. I want to get line on it to use my new toy. I have 2-1000 yrd spools of 100 lb braid and I have a 1000 yd spool of 150 lb test in hand and would like to use these. Based on the line capacity for these I saw on Meltons this what I am thinking.
From Meltons on braid capacity:
Line Capacity - Braid: 3390 yds./100 lb., 2320 yds./130 lb., 1560 yds./200 lb
So I am thinking 1000 of 100lb on bottom, then 1000 of 150 lb and in theory I should have around 3/4 capacity filled, then top with a mono top shot of 100 lb or suggestions?
Main use will be from beach, but also offshore at times.
Please give me your adivce
Thank you |

Save your 100# for a smaller reel, load that 80w up with 150# braid to several hundred yards of 150# mono and your good to go.

I even got my HEB diet soda in there so you know its not stolen off the web . I think I am going to do the 100 on bottom and 150 on top. I am running out of money and I want to get some play time in. I can always transfer that line to other reels once I catch back up and buy better stuff.
