String
I like it for everyday fishing, but would rather use berkly for tournament fishing. It gets expensive putting high dollar string on 15 poles. does anyone have "tricks"? When I fish a tournament, I only un-spool half the spool of old string, cut half off, then tie the new string on, and spool up. That way i can spool 4 reels with one pack of string.. |

Use braid......when it starts to wear, take it all off and respool backwards, that way you have fresh line on the end.......imo

I have spooled some of the H20 Express line and it works OK on redfish. Have not caught a trout on it yet. I do like you do, top-shot your spool with about 50 yds of fresh line. That way I can change line more often. I join the two lines with a blood knot, and I retie my lure about every 5 fish or when it looks frayed. I back off my drag every time I hook a fish that can pull and I very seldom break off a fish. Wow Daddy, you maintain 15 rods, most of my buds use two and make fun of me because I like to bring four. Those bass guys have 10 or 12 strapped down on the deck.

When I fish bass tourneys, I like a rod rigged for each bait. I save alot of time not having to tie lures. Plus I like different actions for different baits. But when a tournament comes around I spool up with florocarbon. Everyday fishing and I use cheap mono. Just recently I started using H2O express because of the price.

I usually use braid but when I use mono I use the original stren,you can buy a 1500 or 2000 yard spool for a decent price.
