Diawa 60 Coppery and Backing question

Does anyone know how much backing for a 60 Seagate? I have 45 lb ATM Copper and 50lb PP? 

 

Need to fill two reels.

 

Thanks in advance

a 60 seagate will take 300 yards of 40# pp and 300' of 45#copper.i'm not sure if it will take a full 300 yards of 50#.i would put about 280 yards to be safe

Thanks, What about for a 400 copper?

 

I have 50lb PP right now, I'm thinking 200 yards of backing and 400 of copper?

can't help you with that.i have never put a 400 copper on a seagate.i use the okuma 55 for 400

Best way to do it, since you have 2 reels. Put it in backwards and then count passes when out on the right way.

 

I have put 450 and 500 coppers on segate 60's with 40lb suffix braid. 400 copper was

With 50 lb suffix braid.

I think I have around 800' of 30lb power pro with 400' of 45lb copper and it fits perfectly.
