Now you can get that rod broken in and slimed real good.
the 8 lb mono much , says she can handle it and she don't care for it , she is a 6 lb mono rod for sure, will respool it accordingly today....
my bad , should have put on what my mind said to use in new 6 mono, but thought why not try the 8 for grins
didn't cast as well with it and did not like getting bent hard with large crappie on the other end at long range , made odd eyelet noises as the line strained from the long range fights and wasn't what I prefer in said fights and or casting either.
such is how the testing is going and YES, I unwrapped the corks handles too
just a quick fyi ....
