fezman Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I'm stepping up my river fishing this year. Just got a new Dobyns 682SF, going to pair with a Pflueger Supreme 8230MGX spinning reel. What would be a good line for my setup, using mostly 1/8-1/4 baits (tubes, craws etc)?? Heard good things about Sunline Shooter and Sniper, not sure if these are worth the price. I have used PP 20/6 with Fluoro leader in the past with my M spinning setup. Just want to see what others prefer for river fishing. Thanks. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 20, 2013 Super User Posted January 20, 2013 Yo-Zuri Hybrid #6, .010" diameter, 11.9 lb breaking strength. If your water is generally stained, I recommend "Purple Smoke"; for gin clear water, "Green". Quote
Super User Teal Posted January 20, 2013 Super User Posted January 20, 2013 Sniper is worth it. But the seagar lines are good too and cost less. No experience with yo zuri, but have heard only good stuff about it Quote
WCCT Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I would go with Sniper or Seaguar Invisx in 8lb test. Quote
mrmacwvu1 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 RW gave me the same advice years ago and that is all i have fished From Erie to KY lake and everywhere in between it has never let me down. Quote
fezman Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Would Yo-Zuri Hybrid 4# be the way to go with the smaller sized reel? Going to be using a size 30 Pflueger Supreme. I did try it on a spinning reel a few years back and had some issues...... however, I think that was 8lb and may have been way to 'big' for 1500 series sized Shimano spinning reel. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 21, 2013 Super User Posted January 21, 2013 Well, I actually use #4 on my smallmouth rig. The 7-7 I caught on the RoadTrip last spring was on #4. The particular reel is a Stella 2500FE. I have #4 spooled on two other reels, including a Symetre 500FJ. I like it! Quote
