Default XPS Flurocarbon

I bought the BPS ProLite Finesse Baitcaster reel, I didn't think 6# would
work on it, I thought it was to small of a line. I'll give the Stren a
whirl.

Kevin Van Dam hucks the stuff, who can you trust? (beside you guys in here)

Two things....
1. XPS line from BPS sucks. Use Stren.
2. 8# line on an ultra light reel is too big. Switch to 6# and you'll love
it.

I bought a new ultra light weight reel and spooled on some XPS #8
Fluorocarbon, which was brand new. I had the chance try it out last
night, here's what I noticed and don't know if I got good or bad line. I
noticed that it would float on the surface sometimes and coil like a phone
cord. The water temps and air temps were low to mid 50's if this helps
any.
