Sami,
You've seen me cast.
I need all the help I can get.

Hi Trev,
I actually thought about you
my recommendation is based on the high drag setting for those harsh terrains that you're only option is the high drag to stop them from reefing you, however I feel the problem with PE line comes from the strike and with those who use high drag setting.
I would still use the PE line for Bluefin tuna as the drag is not set high most of the time and is less then 30 lb on strike increasing gradually during the fight, so that strike velocity is eliminated with a low drag setting.
I totally understand why it serve certain anglers and there is nothing wrong with it, my opinion is based on my experience and from what I've seen in the field and experience with other anglers.
the hollow is not for everybody and if all angler convert to it business owner and shop like us will be in trouble
do i need to follow what the Japanese do and how they fish? yes but i will adjust to what suits me the best..
Tight lines
Sami
