Fishing line recommendations

[LCangler]

I am about to respool 4 of my reels. I think I would like to try new brand or type of line. I have been using Pline for years, 12# for speck and 20# for big reds. My 3 speck reels are shimano curados and my big red reel is an ambassador. Any favorite lines out there for these type of usages?

1. speck, live bait reel
2. speck, plastics reel
3. speck, topwater reel
4. reds reel

FINS Shock absorbing braid. That is all I use. There is a discount code posted in the sponsor section.

[LCangler]

Thanks. I've never used braid. Does it come in same poundage system as mono? What pound do you use for specks? Do you use any type leaders or tie direct to bait/hooks.

[jsmoke222000]

I throw 40 lb shock absorbing on all my reels. It's the size of 12 lb mono. I tie direct.

I am definitely going to give it a shot. Can I buy it locally, I would like to get it tomorrow. Otherwise I will order it from the sponsor.

[jsmoke222000]

None of the local shops carry it that I know of. If you order online, be sure to use that discount code.

I saw some FINS line in Lake Charles Tackle recently. They had the Windtamer I think. I asked about the FINS Shock Absorbing and they ordered it for me. Just respooled some reels with it. Thanks for the info on this JSmoke.

Glad to hear that LCT has picked them up!

[LCangler]

I didn't think to ask LCT to order it for me, I ordered from the sponsor and got the 30% discount. That was awesome. I just respooled 2 reels and will try out this week.
