The first rule of fishing is to fish where the fish are. The second rule of fishing is to never forget the first rule.

Really good info, did your 306 pum come with a counter weight??? I've seen several kits for sale that had no counter weight.
They call it fishing, not catching

  I've never seen a counter weight for one. I don't think it even needs one. It balances just as well now as it did with the bail on the reel. You might be thinking of the 302...I saw there is a counterweight for the 302 PUM.

Impressive testing, Mike!

Best, Fred

   I just noticed the spool wasn't full on that 302...so more realistically the max would be about 14 pounds...still pretty impressive. 8)
