Inuse lefties because I hate changing hands when I cast. Anyways, for 10xd what line are y'all using?. I have 12pd sniper but thinking about 14. When I am not fishing I am thinking about fishing. And mostly what I should have done differently my last trip! #Brockstarama

Big heavy duty reel with great drag, casts a mile, and big spool. I got two of them on a widely used internet auction site for around $135 apiece 3 or 4 years ago and they have held up great. They’re probably about $20 more now each. Highly recommend, and I got no skin in the game. PB. 10 lb 12 oz
