Thanks Big D, I'm not too impressed with the hybrid line. Seems way too brittle at the knots. I'll fish it a little today and if it keeps breaking, then off it goes and I'll put some Berkley big game on it.
I used it off and on quite a bit today and as long as you don't put too many loops in your knot... no more than five and wet it when you snug it down they seem to hold. I'm a little disappointed in it so far. I rarely have a knot failure with mono and never with braid. So far I have had 3 with this stuff including the very first one I tied, attaching line to spool.
I finally had enough of the hybrid and put 20lb braid on it. I get too many (if that's possible) large snook on and it makes me feel bad to have it swim away with a lure in it's mouth. Not to mention the cost of the lure.
@@SunGodLuffy_5 I went with the 20# braid too even though it's a 2000 size. I figure if it still casts good (which it does) I'd rather have that extra strength.
@@SunGodLuffy_5 That's a good size. I gave my dad a 4000 Battle II a few years ago as a B-day present and it handles about anything he's throwed at it.
Looks like a really nice rod and reel combo, I like that spooler station also 👌🏻💯

@@floridatabdigger3104 , I know man, I hate to break one off in a fish or gut hook one ... the cost of lures these days dont help much either
Nice video I just got that combo and I'm gonna fish it on a jetty.
Your going to love it. What line did you go with?
@@floridatabdigger3104 20 lb braid and a 15 lb floro leader.
My reel is a size 4000.
