Floyd- thanks for the response, I get ya about being on the fence.. I always have to switch out my mono reels for the lead cores when needed.. just one more thing to do and rember. Luv2– If I had an option I would prefer to go with something similar to the Diawa 47 since the larger handle provides more leverage in the handle for the kids and reeling, but beggars can’t be choosers 🤣 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
