[quote HD7000]...! I will say though, the most important piece of fishing gear you can invest in that will help you catch more fish due to lighter line is a quality reel!...You will catch a lot more trout on 4-6 lb test with a good reel than 10-12 lb on a cheapo![/quote]

Thanks for the advice. I totally agree with you...but it's my wallet is the one that's hard to convince! (That... and maybe my wife []). With young kids & glasses, braces, etc. the money has other names on it before it gets labeled "fishing reel." That said....big fish + light tackle = AWESOME!!! and one day I'll have the equipment to do it.
