[QUOTE="magna19, post: 2882436, member: 24646"] Most all the high capacity line holding 5000, 5500, 6500 Ambassadeur work best for the type fishing I do these days. Which is trolling for walleye/saugeye. Stripping off 4-5 ft. of line several times a day to tie new knots or breaking off lines that get hung use up line quick. I can load up premium 12 lb. test mono once and usually get through the year. Just put 2 new (of the cheaper) 6500's from walmart that was marked down to 30.00 each in service this spring. One went south yesterday. Worked great until the handle bent from grandson fighting a fish then wouldn't lock and had problems after a nice hybrid striper. Ive never had a chance to use any of the real nice baitcaster's because of the price. I am fortunate to have a nice stash of 5000, 5500, 6500 reels left from my dad. The older ones are definitely better. [/QUOTE]
