  1. is this a baitcaster? wouldnt go below 50lb braid if i was you.
  2. It's ok until you backlash and kink it. Then that part of it is done.
  3. Line stretch stinks. Use a softer rod and keep your sensitivity.
  4. Lews Custom light will throw that easily and even lighter. The 27 position brake is awesome.Its extremely smooth and weighs nothing. You can't beat it.
  5. Spool tension and drag are not related.
  6. Carbonlite and higher rods are awesome.
  7. They are flouro coated mono. Not true flourocarbon lines.
  8. I fish wacky rig senkos on a 6-6 medium baitcaster with 8 lb test. No twist issues.
  9. Flourocarbon is not a coating.
  10. Flourocarbons stretch more than mono. It's just at higher pressure and only stretch once. It does not recover !!! It basically damages the line.
  11. ruberized tape or dont hold it that way'
  12. Lift the rod up and take the slack out then manually close the bail.
  13. Never go below 12 lb. Diameter !!! That's 50 lb test.
  14. Best snaps made
  15. What is an MK ? What is a Force ?.
  16. That design stinks. The wire can wedge it's way out.
  17. To small a diameter braid will dig on a baitcaster. 50 lb minimum in my opinion. It doesn't dig so even with light lures it casts far.if you are a guy who is worried about line visibility throw a leader on it.
  18. Got the rod today. Fit and finish are perfect. Rod is light and balances right in front of the reel seat with a Lews 4.9 oz custom lite.Definately more of a medium heavy than a heavy. Tip is nice and loads up well for long casts.later in the week I will take it fishing.
