I knew you’d pick up on that. 1000 is the biggest reel that I have small line on and I’d have to spool up one of my 2500’s and basically throw it out after. My thought was to keep everything as equal as possible and see what, if any benefit came from the larger guides. The line I used doesn’t make any noise so it’s as smooth as I have to offer besides some 3 lb twitchmaster, and I knew that wouldn’t outcast the braid. Hope you get your answers soon.
