    Default Where to get bulk spool of Sufix Hi-Vis in 4lb. test?


    I want to purchase a large spool of the Sufix Hi-Vis yellow in 4 lb. test. The 330 yards spools leave me with not enough line left to fill another spool and I feel like I am wasting some or getting a less-than-full spool.

    Put some backer line on the spool first that way you don't have to waste so much of the good stuff.

    I've been using the suffis hi-vis yellow alot and like it. But I tried the Gamma copolymer 4lb hi-vis gold and I like it better. It's real manageable, casts great, stronger and you can see it better. Doesn't seem to bother the fish at all. Caught a 7lb LM bass on it the other day. Cabelas had the 3,000yd spool on sale for @29.00 the other day but I'm sure they're gone.

    Ditto. I use cheap line for backing on all my reels and leave enough room for about 50 yards of the "good stuff".

    Had a guide tell me once anything more than 80 yards on a spool is burning $$$$$, except for a trolling reel. He uses backer then tops off all reels he & clients use with 80 yards of his favorite, when that gets too short due to break off, etc he knows its time to replace the 80 yards-meaning he always has fresh line on reels at least once a month or sooner depending on trip numbers. When was last time any of us cast 60 to 80 yards??? not me......

    That's especially true with braid. My Fireline spools are 125 yards, so I can spool two reels with 62.5 yards each and use backing for the difference. My Power Pro spools are 150 yards each, so that gives me three 50 yard spools.

    I know some folks who use heavy rubber bands on their spools and then put the line over that - thus not needing backing line. But lots of good tips
