Hi I know it's says 240m of 12lb but that's pretty vague based on line diameter these days. Does anyone know how much they take of 0.35mm filled right up?
Thanks

Your best bet is to get a spool of cheap line and put a bit of backing on them. That way you know youll get all 3 done from a spool. Assuming you have 3. I recently redone my slds. Based on whats said on the reel spool, id have done all 3 from a 1000 metre spool. I put about 100 metres of backing on each reel, and only just got them all done off one spool. You never know what they consider a full reel spool compared to what you do so its never going to be an exact science

Maybe go off another Daiwa product, Daiwa Sensor as a guide - 12lb is 0.33 / 15lb is 0.37 . . .so a 0.35 is probably going to spool up at 250M . . . . a 1000M spool will give you a spare spools worth on this basis!

Just a quick one on this. What washers are required for best line lay on these reels. Looks like they have one red thick washer at moment.
Cheers
