testAnswered on 6/24/2009 by test from testA:
this reel is great for pike and small muskies. the best line for it is 20- 30lb braid. if you are doing serious muskie fishing i would reccomend a 7'6" gander mt muskie rod with eather a shimano calcutta te or b series reel. put on some mono backing and 80lb tuf-line. with this combo and 131lb+steel leader can handle a 1-8oz lure. the garcia reel is a great reel but it is hard to cast util you are use to casting it with braid .otherwise good choiceAnswered on 8/28/2009 by steve from lake wobigon mnVERIFIED BUYER
