  1. I'm wondering if anyone has tried this line? Advertised as supple, easy handling, with very good knot retention, and abrasion resistance. Has anyone tried the Ande Backwoods Mono? If so how did it work out for you?
  2. For lack of better words, can someone please explain Line Capacity/Test as if you were teaching a child! I've read many posts on the subject but there's so much fisherman jargon and technical terms that I'm a tad confused. I'm new to fishing in regards to finally purchasing my own tackle, rather then just showing up to the lake/ocean and fishing with a buddy's gear. As an example, I got an amazing deal on a few highend rods and one of the reels I purchased new and nearly free, was a Chronarch 200e7. The specs on the box read: Nylon Mono / lb. (yds.) -- 8(180) • 10(155) • 14(110) PowerPro Braided -- 30(190) • 50(120) • 65(80) Nylon Mono -- 8(180) • 10(155) • 14(110) Fil Tresse PowerPro -- 30(190) • 50(120) • 65(80) Lol, I'm so confused! Help, please! I'm looking to purchase a Mono, Braided, and Fluorocarbon Line but I don't know what I'm suppose to purchase for this particular reel or the others for that matter.
  3. I am interested to know which brand mono AND line size you use for the two top water tactics below : 1 . Chuggers & Poppers : There are those with more experience than me who suggest week end anglers do not use heavy enough monofilament line for this category . A heavier 15lb. to 20lb. mono line will float higher thus better for chuggers and poppers ...Your thoughts and experiences ? 2 . Walk-The-Dog Baits : For Spooks , Sammys , etc. it appears many may use a slightly lighter pound test mono (10lb. to 14lb.) for walk-the-dog type baits as they want the line to have the right characteristics when snapping their wrist to work the bait (especially important for throwing the rod tip BACK at the bait to get it to kick off to one side) . So it appears mono line size and choice is possibly more critical in the category of walk-the-dog type baits ...Your thoughts and experiences ? I mostly fish clear water reservoir lakes so line visibility comes into play (why I primarily skipped the possibility of braid - not sure it would be a good choice even in stained water for above top water techniques) . Lastly - I would also be curious if memory is a chief concern when working above type top water baits with a bait caster (i.e. is low memory mono line an advantage here or if it doesn't matter ) ?
