DBL000006 Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Will 300 yards of 15lb test fill 2 baitcaster reels? Quote
Penguino Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 What type of line?? Just look at the specs of your reel. Quote
DBL000006 Posted January 27, 2015 Author Posted January 27, 2015 It only shows 12lb test line. I can spool 145 yds of 12lb test line. Im putting grand slam fluo line on my reels 1 Quote
Super User rippin-lips Posted January 27, 2015 Super User Posted January 27, 2015 300/2 = 150 150>145 #15 is thicker than #12 It'll hold less than 145 yards of #15 Quote
Super User HoosierHawgs Posted January 27, 2015 Super User Posted January 27, 2015 It only shows 12lb test line. I can spool 145 yds of 12lb test line. Im putting grand slam fluo line on my reelsIn this case, yeah, it should do Quote
Super User Tywithay Posted January 27, 2015 Super User Posted January 27, 2015 Unless it says the diameter on the reel or reel box, 12 and 15 are essentially useless numbers. Just venturing a guess, I'd say you can fill both and will have some left over. Quote
kikstand454 Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 I'd say you can do three reels if you use backing line. 2 Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 You can look on the packages for the line diameter and do the math. If the 15# is x% thicker the line capacity will go down by the same %. Assuming the 145 yds of 12# is accurate it should hold a little over 100 yds of 15#. 1 Quote
Super User lmbfisherman Posted January 27, 2015 Super User Posted January 27, 2015 I'd say you can do three reels if you use backing line. This! You can add backing to both reels and spool 100 yard on each and still have enough to spool another reel. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 31, 2015 Super User Posted January 31, 2015 It's the diameter not the pound test on the package. I do believe most specks on the reel is full capacity, I'm always fill little less than full. Quote
