Sea Ranger Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Gday 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. Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris b Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 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 CHRIS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
