Lost to better fish today wile trotting had a barbel on for bit then lost drag just seemed to tight for the 3lb line I was using
I filled the spool like normal reel also would it be better to remove some line from it then
Might just use this reel for silver in winter now tho had good day on...
First time using this type of reel (closed faced )
Today didn’t fine it to bad was trotting with it had some nice fish but I lost a few also
Using 3lb hook lenth but I have the drag fully open and it’s not very lose at all it needs a good yank when I try free line from reel
Thought it would...
Went for line today went for the korum 5.5lb and got closed face abu 507 and korum glide float rod and few other bits and bobs gunner give them ago tomorrow
Have used most of them lines
Use Preston on my feeder rods and like it
Silstar on my pole rigs in past
