Hey guys,
Rather than trying to find a spare spool for my Ross Cimarron, I thought I might just pick up an Allen Reel if I can get one on sale, or with a discount (yes, I signed up).
Anyhow, the 3/4 reel use to be the 3/5 reel. Has anybody put a 5wt WF line on the 3/4 reel WITH some backing? Better yet, does anybody have a 5wt SA GPX or Rio Grande line on the 3/4 reel WITH some backing.
The reel may run into some "nasty" smallmouths, and some backing may come in handy, but I'm trying to keep the rod/reel combo as light as possible.
I'll leave my 5wt Wulff TT on the Cimarron and use that strictly for trout.
Thanks
