Title: Spectra Line Capacity for Penn Int. 12LT
Post by: thunnus69 on March 19, 2014, 01:12:51 PM
Anyone know how much 50# Power Pro I can get on my International 12 LT with a top shot?  This is the reel that Cal "Super 12ed" for me in the fall.
Thanks.

Sorry, can't seem to find my caps book. But the 12 will hold a mind boggling amount of 50 spectra. Best recollection at this time is the 12 will hold over 400 yards of 80 spectra, 6/700 yards of 60 spectra. A Cal'd super 12 is a lot of reel to be putting 50 spectra on....imho.

i think 400 yards of 80 spectra is about right.  using 50# spectra would be a waste.
