Have a 15t on the way and looking to spool it with 80lb braid. What are the best options to look into?
How is the 50 stronger than the 60?If it’s capacity you want, 50# Threadlock is actually stronger than the 60#. ABS of 60# is in the low eighties and 50# is usually right around ninety or a little more depending on the spool. The 50# is thinner too, it’s not mislabeled 80#. I’ve tested quite a bit of it, very consistent line from spool to spool. I really like Prospec also, but for what you’re wanting, I’d go Threadlock.
The material used in that particular line is stronger. The line rating on a spool of spectra should be used as a guideline only, many times it’s wildly inaccurate.How is the 50 stronger than the 60?
