Yo-Zuri US #6 on Spool A, What on Spool B?

[LAO162]

So I'm going to put Yo-Zuri Ultra Soft #6 on the first spool of my spinning outfit.  Other than more YZUS #6, what should I consider putting on the spare spool?

14 or 20 lb. braid.

I was thinking about going the other direction.  I've never used anything over 8lb.  Also, its only a MF spinning out rated 4-12lbs

You might try to determine your fishing needs and go from their.

If you fish, heavy cover then maybe some 20-30lb braid (Sufix or PowerPro).

Or you could try my favorite P-Line Floroclear 10lb or P-Line Evolution both are similar to Yo-Zuri.  They will work for just about anything.

15-20 lb Power Pro. Start with some mono, than spool the PP.I tie 2-4 feet of fluoro or mono leader than the bait. It's a blast, super sensitive.

Looks like I should definately be moving up if I'm going into heavy cover

Any suggestions for "finesse" applications?

What did you end up doing?   I just got a spare spool myself and debating the same thing.  I am going to load up one with #6 Yo-Zuri Ultrasoft but didn't know if I should go lighter or heavier.

I know Roadwarrior swears by this stuff.  I was thinking of going  10# (average break is 16.5) or 12# (19.5)  Yo-Zuri Ultrasoft for some slop conditions (or is braid a better way to go?).

I suggest going lighter. Although I recommend #6 to everyone because I want them to have the additional margin of strength that it offers, I fish #4 on my main smallmouth rod. Both of the fish in my avatar were landed on #4. I have NEVER been broke off by a fish using it, either.

Thanks RW, that's what I have been thinking.  I might even make #4 my primary for most of my fishing.

Now, I just have to find it locally so I can pick it up and run.  I'm afraid if I order on-line from Cabela's I'll end up with a package much bigger than a couple spools of line  ;D

LOL, that's what JUST happened to me! I placed a Cabela's order for some 6# ultra soft, and a bunch of other stuff came in the box with it!  ;D ;D
