Does anyone fish PE6 locally?
February 08, 2009, 09:44:57 PM
I was wondering whether anyone fishes PE6 locally (around Australia) for GTs?
If it swims; I want to catch it!

I've caught heaps of trevors up to over 20kg on my 8000 with PE6.  Good match for Cairns fish, though I mainly use PE8 now.

Brandon, I tried to do so, on my last trip to the Whitsunday area, but got wiped out too many times to bother persisting with such an absurd idea any more.  ::) ;)

Brandon,  to be fair, some of the blame in my instances of lost fish, was undoubtedly attributable (is that a word?!) to the inadequate drag system of the reel I was using  :-\
