[QUOTE="NJL, post: 50484, member: 1435"] I use 20lb mono on mine. I've only used braid once, and had trouble with it slipping out of the release. My releases are pretty old though, i'm sure they make special releases for braided line. I remember my dad saying they started out using 12lb for Sak salmon, but when they went to lake michigan for the first time they couldn't stop those bigger salmon's runs. They ended up switching to 20lb test and have used it ever since. [/QUOTE]
