I have heard I will save money buying the 1 pound spool. So I'm gonna go with one, but tell me, which color, overall, is best??
Ultraclear, Green, or Solar collector??

Also, Am I going to need 2 different pound tests, for I will be using 15 for my Penn Spinfisher 5500SS and Daiwa Sealine X lure fishing combo, but will I need more pound test for my 7' Ugly Stik tiger with Shimano Baitrunner 6500B?? I will be throwing live and dead baits everywhere with the baitrunner, regagrdless of amount of rocks/underwater structure, should I make it a bit heavier??:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

I HAVE 2 SHIMANO 6500 BAITRUNNER WITH TRILENE BIG GAME
20 LB I GO THREW 2600 YDS A YEAR I CHANGE MY LINE EVERY
COUPLE OF MONTHS I DO A LOT OF FISHING AFTER A WHILE IT
STRETCHES SO THIS YEAR I TRYED POWER PRO A 65LB TEST LINE
ITS LIKE HAVING 16LB ON ITS THINNER MORE SENSITIVE A LOT BETTER CASTING CAN GET OUT A LOT MORE DISTANCE AND NEVER CHANGED IT FOR 6 MONTHS AND I WILL BE USING IT AGAIN THIS SUMMER $29.00 300 YDS I WILL NOT BE GOING TO
TRILENE THIS YEAR THE OTHER REEL WILL BE SET UP WITH
POWER PRO LINE ALSO

An interesting point that was brought up on a different board. If you are using braid on reels meant for up to 15 or 20lb mono, be careful how you set the drag with the heavier braids. Some guys complaining about drags wearing out prematurely are using 50lb, and 65lb braid on reels designed to handle no more than 20lb test mono, and their drags are crapping out. I am sure that other problems could happen as well.

Vic go with 17lb test it will cast better, and you canget a spare spoool for your Baitrunner for about 25 bucks, and spool it heavier or lighter.
