I have used my Quantum 200 5:4:1 baitcaster for a few years now and recently replaced the line. Not knowing what I previously used, I threw 10lbs test on it and now I cant keep from backlashing it. Ive never had a problem with it before. Could it be the line or is it time for a new reel?

Could be time to adjust the reel.

You just need to adjust the reel. I've used 10lb up 20lb mono and flouro it's all about adjusting. I've used bigger line like 80lb braid but its the same diameter as 17ln mono so I dont consider it bigger.
