idk about that , I was at the tackle shop today they had plenty on the wall , just checked the trilene web site its still there with the rest of the mono's.

SPYDERCO 204 TRI-ANGLE

Whats the opinion on Big Game ? Compared to XL and XT ?

For my leader, I double my braid with either a 3 turn surgeons loop or a bimini twist then tie a uni/uni.

If you set one brake , set the other on the opposite side. I have 4 set on mine and can cast just about anything with that setting ,never a backlash. basic cleaning instructions here.

mono:sufix elite or trilene maxx braid: power pro or fins prt fluoro:i don't use it.

Not only is it easier to reel, the low gears keep the bait in the strike zone longer.

Where I want a low speed reel the most is when I'm using big blade spinner baits.A medium to low speed reel for cranks.And a high speed for everything else.

All of the time...

I own the CBR843 and love it.I mainly throw square bill and lipless cranks with it.I don't really use large bill cranks at all ,but I'm sure it will work with them also.

I have two rods I use saltwater inshore one has a Saros 3000 the other is a Sustain 3000 both with #15 power pro , both handle braid equally.Close the bail manually , and tug on the line to get it tight before you reel , and you'll never get wind knots. I only use braid on my spinning rods for saltwater. For freshwater I only use mono.

Is that reel a good one ?? :-/

Finally found a ABU Revo S to look at in Wally World , I was disappointed to see that it was not made in Sweden.. :'( I have been out of fishing for a couple years didn't know that had been sold to Purefishing....

I'm using a MBR 783c GL3 for my worm rod , with a old Sweden Made 4600.. Have been using that model since 92' when there where made out of IM6..Broke a couple (never on a fish)..But my dealer always replaced it, had to Pro rate the last one..
