I fished 50 lb. power rpo on a 4500 blast and it worked beautifully this past year.

fishing is not a love, but an obsession

thanks for the replies everyone. The reel seems very well built and powerful. The oversized drilled aluminum knob is very comfortable (custom champaign color knob and spool). Only time will tell how well it takes a dunkin and sand. Probably going to go with the stealth or stren.

I had Stren on mine all last season, 50#, as it is a little thinner than Stealth. Due to the low line capacity, I wanted a thinner diameter line on there. It worked out great with that line.
