View Full Version : nautil 6500 striperjerk1 10-18-2002, 12:04 AM any pro,s and con,s. mono or braid. on a lami 120-1l. capesams 10-18-2002, 05:58 AM piked 1 up not long ago, very nice so far, wraps the line on evenly, no lumps, drag is good, the only problem so far is the 2 screws at the bottom of the stem needs to b glued in ,as they will come loose. I 'm useing 17# mono. on this 1, but I understand fireline or whiplash works great as well.......nice reel all & all , but only the test of time will reelly tell......it should be fine on the , 120 1l , but would jump to the 7500 on 120 1m. striperjerk1 10-18-2002, 10:33 AM thanks capesams, will the tackle shop tighten the screws for me or do i have to do it on my own.? i never used braid before anything i should know or do if i go that way? is 50lb whiplash to much? or should i stay in the 30 lb range? CSK 10-18-2002, 10:39 AM Striperjerk, I bought a GV6500 from CCtackle this past spring and Mike checked all the screws for me prior to shipping. BTW, he has them for a great price ;) striperjerk1 10-18-2002, 10:46 AM hey CSK, whats u doin? got my new rod. :D thanks for the input. thats probly be where im going to get it. thanks agin. chris L 10-18-2002, 06:06 PM I have my 6500 on a 9ft lami 1081L . I use 14# fireline 20# will work too and 17# mono . On my 1201L I have a 7500 the 6500 seemed too small for the rod it didnt have the balance I was looking for . It will work fine if it is all ya have . I love the 1201L ! I have it as a spinner and conventional . striperjerk1 10-19-2002, 08:13 AM hey chris L, did the 7500 make a difference in casting? i mean weight wise. i dont have either reel yet. vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2025, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
