I'm sure you could do it, but I'm not sure why you would want too.

Granted you could get a ton of it on the reel for backing and I guess you would want to stay within the 20 to 30 pound range as with dacron.

If you went to something the same diameter as dacron to prevent your finger from being sliced up would probably cost you a small fortune.

If you want to go a smaller Mid or Large Arbor reel then I could see the benefit of using it.

The best teacher is experience and is usually better than one opinion over another. I would say try it and see if it works for you, I tried the Gel-spun for awhile but ended up going back to good old Dacron and have no regrets in doing that. That's the closest I came to using something thin like Power-Pro.
