Submitted by jack93 on Thu, 2010-08-12 21:50
just bought a shimano torium 50 and i just wanted to know how many meters of 80lb braid (pe 6 ) it would fit on
im looking at saltiga braid 80lb, but i am open to any other types of good braids ?

If its actually PE6 and you
If its actually PE6 and you put minimal backing, it should fit almost 1000m. PE8 should still fit close to 800m. Cant guarantee the calcs, but should be about right, possibly more. Shimanos numbers dont quite add up the way i checked, so used the lower number to check.
If you're getting that much, have a look into saltiga boat braid from the states (use half a 1800m PE6 pack and you should be right, then sell the other half in 900m or 3x300m)
