Jim, its rough but on the 18000, you'll get roughly 300-330m of 80lb and around 240-270m of 100lb. I don't use TF XP 130lb so I don't know but I'd say it'd be in the vicinity 180-210m.

On the 20000, I'd say 350-380 of 80lb, around 290-320 of 100lb and aroudn 230-260 of 130lb.

Very happy for a TF XP user to correct me.

Brandon would 180-210m of 130lb line be enough for poppering.
will the 20000sw spool fit on 18000sw.
cheers Jim

Yes to both questions.

ditto to Luke's comment, Jim
Of course, the caveat is that if you hook a 70kg New Caledonian GT that decides it wants to go, you could be in trouble!
