Brandon,

How much more line will the SOM take? I can't seem to split the difference.

Brandon Khoo:
I don't have the reel in front of me but I think that it takes something like 270m of PE6. All I can say is that the SOM spool is noticeably bigger.

Chuen Fan:
PE6 300m, PE8 250m according to the specs, standard spool will fit less than 200 of PE8

Chris_Nias:
@ Jon Li: Hehehe... I'll get SP80M just two days from Jakarta to Nias.

@ Brandon Khoo: Yes Brandon, i'm looking Stella 10000XG for my SP80M. But i want to know what reason stella better than twinspin?

Yesterday i'm popping with SP80M + SR30L + PE8 + Cubera 150gr. I'm casting nonstop in three hour.
Why i'm very tired? Whether because very heavy weight or because SP80M very stif? Please give me input..

chris,

Brock Arifovic:
Might I suggest to GET FIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That would be a good start, if that fails try fishing 20lb on plastics for snapper or simply HTFU.

It really isn't that hard.

Did you happen to get/raise any fish in that 3hrs of casting? Maybe you could try a new area to fish.
