A few years ago I would agree with that statement but not now! I have found the optimum line and guide layout (and blanks) that allow me to throw 100 yds +. The 250 has been my favorite since it was first produced. I have tried just about everything out there and I will stick with my 250. Concentrate on a good blank, guides and layout along with a good braid.

Bingo, couldn't agree more!
