Hi all,

Made a mistake and ordered 300yards of green 50lb platypus braid. I thought I would use it on my SW203 but was told was too heavy for it and I should instead spool it with 30lb braid which I have done now.

I am now wondering now what must I do with the 50lb braid. I had it spooled but never used it and have now taked in off. I cut it in two seperate peices of roughly the same length when i did spool it.

I have a tld 15 which i have 20lb mono on which i use for snapper etc in the bay and for trolling. Do you think it would be ok to spool the 50lb braid onto the tld 15. It is matched to a steve starling rod 8 -10kg rod.

If not what are other suggestions. I got a penn erskine signiture baitcaster. Should i put it on this of not the tld 15?

Matey put it on your tld15 and use 10mtrs of 20lb mono as a leader, easey to tie knots with mono.
