Jim, the question Paul asked about dacron line. I would say no, as it has no stretch as compared to nylon and braided vs twisted, braided is also more durable therefore prefered. Comments ?

--- Begin Message ---Way too light. We typically use 220# test on winches, and we have used heavier at the Nats. 150# test is common for retievers. I typically put two spools of 220# on a drum.
