Ok It's time to spool my 9/0. Brand new. The 12/0 ain't quite ready yet. Heres what I've learned from reading the shark board. Correct me if I;m wrong please. I'm gonna load 25 yards of 80 lb. mono for backing. To this using an Albright knot/w lock. ( I've been practicing this mind you) I will tie and load 50lb. Power pro. I,m just knot sure how much. I'm thinking around 400 yards. I have to leave enough room for 200 yards of 80 lb. mono for the topshot. Am I right and does anyone have a good feel for how much power pro?
My leader will have 10 ft. of 400 lb. mono correctly attatched as I learned here to about 4 ft. of 400lb. stranded cable. 20/0 circle. It will have coastlock clip for the weight witch will be heavier than my bait. I will make it similar to a casting rig but it will be taken out by jetski.
Thanks in advance for the willingness to help us newbies,
