Have yet to use it. It seems smooth with minimum tension on it. I changed the old mono line to 50 lb PP and a 40 lb mono topshot.
Question for you guys...it was mounted on an 8 foot Jarvis Walker ( a Penn Co. ) MH rod, rated for 3/4--3oz lures.
Have never used more than a 7 footer on PB's, 6-packs, or my own boat.

Can I use that outfit on the Papa's Angels or similar boats next month for stripers ?? I can't wait to get out again.

Tight lines all.

Tom of course you can use it with us.. I would say to bring your other rod as well seeing as how you have never used the Jarvis before.. You might not like the feel or you might fall in love.. never know.. Whats nice about the 8 foot is you can really cast that line out there good.. Alot of people like the bigger rod
