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

Is hi vis yellow line easy for fish to see
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.
if i am not mistaken bass pros carries it. i have to go by work later in the day and i will stop by and check for you/
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......
I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it.....

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
