wire line

[Hookedup]

Frank I havent had any trouble with the braid getting frayed. I could see though if your guides did get tore up you could have a problem. I checked my 4 wire line rigs last night I couldnt find any problems with the guides. I have two rigs with 1000ft and no backing and two 500ft rigs wth backing. I also dont get into the backing that often so im shure that prevents problems, if I was going to have any. The only thing I would realy recomend is use a good reel with a good drag.

Thanks for all the info. I may just bite the bullet and spool one up.

Frank,

If you bite the bullet and set one up you won't be sorry you will have two.I run 4 divers , 2 wire, 2 braided the wire caught 2 to 1 over the braided I do run the mag divers on the wire.

In addition to the effectiveness of wire, there is NOTHING like the sound of a wire dipsey getting smoked by a fresh king!!! I've seen people almost hurt themselves from jumping at that sound!

I'd love to get that as an alarm clock tone.

I too am adding wire to my aresenal this year. Thanks for all of the input. This has been very helpful.

i run twirly tips and the rod guides are ceramic works fine,and i run mag dipseys.

Do you use a snubber on a wire line ?

[Paulywood]

I use a clear Opti snubber behind the dipsey.

yeah a snubber is a good choice because the wire has no stretch and the snubber absorbes some of the shock and it isnt all on the line and rod.
