Pier Rat, it could be an older Senator, they hold a lot more line. I put 800yds of 60# with a 75yd 80# topshot on my 9/0. Premium fishing line, such as Suffix Tritanium is a smaller diameter as well.

I just had a 9/0 spooled at Academy and it held 725/50. I think the 12/0 is rated for 800/80. JD I cannot imagine 800/60 + topshot on a 9/0, think you got ripped because they were charging your per yard.

That's pretty funny dude, considering that I put the line on myself...
Had a 950yd spool of BG 60#, if you moved what was left of the line a little, you could see the spool underneath...

I used to think BS when I heard someone talking about putting that much line on a reel as well. Found out it's true! lol

Thank you GD.
