Hello all
Now I know this has probably been done to death????
BUT here goes
Right I've bought my first centre pin never used one before, now it's only a cheaper model as I didn't want to blow big money to find out I can't get on with it??
I will be using it on a small river where under arm chucks or margins are the norm & will just be bouncing small drilled bullets down the flow.
A friend said I will need to use 8lb double strength but my question is do you load it as a normal reel if so what's the best technique????
How much do you put on as I'm worried about it bedding in???
Would you put the double strength straight on or would you back it first???
Sorry if these sound like basic questions but like I said earlier I'm a total novice with centre pins so any advice would be very helpful indeed.
Cheers everyone
Mark
