Will never give up on the Scabrough still loaded with black sylcast . Looked at the tld 15 review says it is only rated to take 30lb line max.How heavy do u lads fish with?

Thats the gear I just put on my mighty abu 7000, the white stuff.
Think its the line capacity that only rates to 30lb but braid is loads thinner so you can fit plenty on even 50lb + stuff.

Thanx 4 the reply gw and thanx Deano but its a lever drag Im looking for.
Hi there, i use a Shimano Charter Special TR2000LD loaded with 300yds 65ld Whiplash Pro, i think its slightly smaller than TLD15 but it has the advantage of level wind, which is great when your fishing with the shads. I bought it from Gerrys last year an cost about £80. Its had some stick and copes well.
