Well if it does not hold enough line I guess I will have a nice fishing reel to use. That is if I ever go fishing again. But I will put as much line on it as I can. Usually do not shoot long shots. I leave that to my partner 'Shuffy'. He shoot way farther than I try to. He can put is dot on the fish and it he usually hits it. I have seen him make some unbelievealbe shots. I prefer the snap shot at my feet, as you know. So I'm thinking it will hold enough line for me. Sure is fun anyhow.
