Braid and fixed spools.


Braid and fixed spools.


I use 65lbs Berkley Crystal braid straight through with my apollo mk2 14ft. Perfect, long casts, no shockleader and really good abrasion resistance. Excellent bit detection. I use crystal cause at on 0.17mm thickness for 65lbs it cuts through the tide and the kelp and flys like a bird off the reel. BUT: make sure the reel has fantastic line lay, I use a Penn 750, I know slated for reliability on this website, but for line lay perfect and fast retrive that is perfect for rough ground.

Note Crystal is very good, others braid I have found to be pants. I use 30lb crystal on the mag multiplier too and thats bril, but you have to make a fast cross spool wind to make sure that it doesnt bed in to the spool.
