Line weight Choice?

Hey Everyone,

Just stripped back my Spheros 14000 after a few seasons of use on the beach and break walls!

Originally I had to spooled with 65lb braid to chase Breakwall Jew and Kings from the rocks, however I believe I could drop down the weight for added distance!

Thoughts on what I should go to? Will probably use it more for beach jew rather than kings as I have an overhead setup for that!

Its on an FSU5120, was thinking of somewhere between 30-50lb braid?

Cheers

What brand of braid did you run on it?

These days a lot of braids are advertised a lot lower than actual breaking strain - you could easily get 65lb out of some 30 or 40lb lines.

As for beach jew you really don't need too much more than 20lb unless you're pulling them away from structure (beach corners) or the shore dump is particularly harsh.
