Got1Fishing Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Hey fellas, I have a question about putting 12lb Tatsu FC line on a 2500 spinning reel if it is the same line diameter as 8lb Berkley Trilene 100% Fluorocarbon. I ask this because I plan on using this reel on a St. Croix Rage 6'8" MXF rod and I plan to use this rod for drop shots, worms, and stick baits. A lot of guys run 8lb line on this setup, but if Tatsu is rated at 12lb and has a smaller diameter than most lines will it affect my lures action in anyway? I only ask this cause I bought 3 spools of 12lb Tatsu while TW had a sale going on, so this would save me some money from having to order to more line. What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance, Sam Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 12, 2014 Super User Posted January 12, 2014 I am using #6 on spinning tackle without ANY issues. I don't think you are going to like #12, but you will love it on a baitcaster! Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted January 12, 2014 Super User Posted January 12, 2014 Agree with RW. Id opt for 8# tatsu at the most Quote
Got1Fishing Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 We'll shoot. I figured as much... I was just hoping. Thanks for the advice guys. I'll have to order some more line Quote
