(way more expensive in UK).Did a fair bit of research into it to be sure and get the correct reel.One place said it held 110 yrds of 6lb line, another said 90yrds, so I contacted okuma(as it was important to me) and they said it holds 110 of 6llb mono.
The place I bought it from also loaded it with 110 yrds of 20lb power pro at a cost of about half a 300yrd spool.
Got the reel (full to the lip with braid) and it says it holds 110yrds on the spool.
So all was great till I used it for the 4th time and emptied the spool of line with a cast which was nowhere near even 80yrds. When I got home I measured it out and turns out there is only 43yrds
of braid on it.Whats the story here? Are line capacities normally way over-rated?
Is there any easy way of finding out if it really is 20lb on the spool?Or if the spool does only hold 40yds of 6lb(surely not)?
I bought 300yds of 30lb PP from same place.
Any help or info would be much appreciated,
