But yeah good swivels are a must for sure!
Just a thought.....

I know this is going to sound naive but but I would expect most modern reels to be able to handle any standard sized "superline" 6-20lb???

I always make sure to use backing if needed and will do it multiple times if I don't think it's quite right.

Either way I spent the better part of the evening switching lines around and changing reels but i will have to wait to see the difference it makes.

Only thing I am curious about will be if I lose much distance on my cast because I went to a shorter rod but it seems to be less flimsy at the tip.
