Good day guys

I have a nice 12 foot 3 ounce casting rod. one piece , Len Butterworth

Set up for 6 inch side caster ,  I would like to cast unweighted beakies and pilchers  for tailors and salmon

off the beach  Will you please recommend   a good line  for the side caster and the braking strain

   Thanks Chris

Welcome to Fishraider

 

For tailor and salmon I like 7kg main line and 10kg trace.  Make sure you use a quality size 10 swivel between the 2.  For mono my favorite is Platypus classic in 15lb.

THANK guys I do like the maxima line  but I was thinking a more softer line for the side caster

To stop a bit of the line flog on the blank  or go with 12 lb  line or

Do you think I would get  to many snap off when casting     Blank is   LB  138- SS /SC   Fast taper may be 40 year old now

I use Platypus.Try googling -  there are still plenty of mono line for alveys comparisons/discussions available online.
