The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-13-25328-gco.jpg)

Love my senator reels. I have like 4 6/0 and half dozen 4/0s and they are solid. Rick's is the only place to go for repairs. Nothing but good things said about him.
I ordered 1097 yd roll of 120lb braid from amazon for like 58 bucks. I plan to add that plus like 10ft of flourocarbon. It's hold like 925 yds of 100lb braid... so.. 120.. eh... should be plenty of room.
Not an expert... but seems it would work.

Rick is reel (get it?) popular in Florida.
He has rebuilt a Triumph TR3 thread on THT.
Goes by triumphrick.
I like the Momoi diamond line in blue.
