re: Hollow Ace Diameter

We do not offer these specs because you cannot measure the line accurately. The line is hollow so it just smashes flat. It will also change once you stick some mono inside depending on the diameter of the line.

re: Hollow Ace Diameter

Ok. That explains why I can't find it anywhere. Anyway, how about this. How much Hollow Ace white (if color matters)can you put on the following reels:

1. Stella 10000SW using 40# & 60#
2. Stella 20000SW using 60#, 80#, and 100#
3. Stella 18000SW using 60#, 80#, and 100#
4. Torsa 40 using 80# & 100#
5. OJ 4000P using 60# & 80#

These will have 10ft-15ft top shot. You may also suggest what hollow ace pound rating should I use for the above reels and how many yards will I get.

Thanks

re: Hollow Ace Diameter

Reduce the capacity over standard Power Pro by 5%. Here are the recommended leader sizes for each class of Hollow Ace:

40# 20-50 leader (.017"-.26")
60# 40-60 leader (.23"-.32")
80# 50-80 leader (.26"-.38")
100# 60-100 leader (.32"-.042")
130# 80-150 leader (.38"-.53")
200# 100-200 leader (.42"-.60")

re: Hollow Ace Diameter

Thanks Bantam. Very informative. .Appreciate it.

By the way, when I'm converting inches to millimeter, I found out that you missed some "0's" before the decimal point but nevertheless, I figured it out.

re: Hollow Ace Diameter

My apologies. I have been traveling and working like crazy. Yesterday I was operating on a few hours sleep after a late flight. I realized today that I made the mistake.

No worries. You're just being human.
