Hey Matt/PA
That is a great way to save money and it works 99.99% of the time. I have done that before, BUT when I did that I had my back half being cheap 8 pound test, the front half was 20 pound fireline. I was out fishing for bass, I had a 4 inch jointed Rapala on. BAM, I get a huge hit. I fought the thing for close to 45 minutes. I got it in close enough to see that it was a Muskie, probablly close to 50 inches. Well, as soon as I saw him, he saw me and made a huge run. Well, he got out into the 8 pound crap line. He just kept pulling and pulling until he had all the line out. Snap, my line breaks right at the spool. Now, me being a smart guy dives in the water and swims for the line, but the Muskie was a LITTLE faster than me. I kinda don't trust that theory anymore. I figure that if I had solid fireline he wouldn't have been able to break it, he probablly would have broke my reel. haha. That is just one of my MANY good fishing stories. Hmmm, that gives me an idea on a new topic.
