    Are you running two lines on that?
    270 is a harmonic divisor number[1]
    270 is the fourth number that is divisible by its average integer divisor[2]
    270 is a practical number, by the second definition
    The sum of the coprime counts for the first 29 integers is 270
    270 is a sparsely totient number, the largest integer with 72 as its totient
    Given 6 elements, there are 270 square permutations[3]
    10! has 270 divisors
    270 is the smallest positive integer that has divisors ending by digits 1, 2, …, 9.

    Nah, the bright orange is backing and the fly line has 3 colour sections to it.
    I like the coloured backing cause it makes me looks cool.
    veitnamcam and wsm junkie like this.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Mate i'm down there all the time. Hit me up when you are keen after this shit weather and bad tide. We want last couple of incoming at first light.

    If not got to any one of these spots.
    Very end of Sulphur Point (popper point)
    The breakwater of the Tauranga Marina (The Ankle Breaker)
    The boat ramp and surrounding area at Sanfords
    The Treatment plant on Chapel St area
    Salisbury Wharf Pilot Bay
    Around the Mt by the Māori statue and surrounding area
    By boat any bloody where you like but over at Matakana is especially good.

    Do these top water reels run the super slow isolation line wraps like the longcasts?
    What ratio are they?

    Also any saltwater guys run tapered leaders and what is recommended.
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.

    308Win One chambering to rule them all.

    Pretty similar to what I just got at 5.3:1 and 41" per turn.

    Tapered leaders? Im all about the cast at the moment as I am just getting some decent use back out of my shoulder.

    50lb braid, 80lb mono leader, haven’t seen anyone using tapered leaders but there might be?

    Ok. Have a 5000 myself. The reel feels great but the only action it has seen is loosing 2 kingies off the rocks awhile ago. Not the reels fault though. Casts really well and the drag was silk smooth. @Gibo. thought the statue area was in the marine reserve??
