Patrick, as far as the 6500SS goes I stopped using them a few years back and have never used braids on them so couldn't tell you. I like fishing Bailless reels because eventually the bail will loosen up some and when you are putting some power behind you're cast they tend to close and cause a break-off, especially with the Penns, have many of them in the garage. I know the braids handled well on the 706Z, no problems, I primarily use Van Staals although I have many complaints with the Drag.
John, yeah that might be a problem with that 90+ pounder you're gonna catch...Although I think if the fish is a World Record Catch it can be "All Line/Tackle", Might qualify...... Yeah I am a tackle Junkie Myself, have way more equiptment than I need and always find myself buying stuff when I am bored or just because I want to have....
