The scuba weight sounds good for constant tension maybe something more than 3 pounds,,,,,,, what about using sand paper as one test or putting a concrete block on the edge of a table and lifting a weight from the floor while the line is dragging across the block... Maybe someone can post pictures and stats on the results.....

I'll see what I have laying around the basement. Problem is, various weights.

I know I have some leftover Cortland Master Braid in 50#. And I might have some remnants of 50# Spectron, too.

Have some 40# Stren in the Jeep somewhere.

I have half a spool of Sufix 65.

I'm pretty sure I have a few yards leftover from a 1100 spool of Big Game 50, too.

I don't think I have any leftover Fireline.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
