JB Spectra

I have some left over Jerry Brown Non Hollow Core spectra from some reels I recently spooled. I wish I could give you an exact yardage amount, but can not because when having them spooled at the shop, their machine would not give an accurate reading. I can however provide a good estimate.

I have one 65# blue spool. It originally had 1200 yards, but I used it to fill up a Shimano TLD 15. According to Tackledirect specs, a TLD 15 holds 530 yards of 65# power pro leaving 670 yards of spectra. I believe the reel took much more than that. I estimate it took around 600 yards, maybe more, this then leaves approximately 600 yards of line. Could be more could be less. In any case, price will be $50.

I have one 50# green spool. It originally had 600 yards, but I used it to fill a Penn 965 baitcaster, so whatever is left over. If 50# braid is equivalent to 12# mono, and according to Penn's specs, it holds 240 yards of 15# test, then ummmm I would estimate that there is waaay over 300 yards left on the spool. Cost for this spool will be $20.

PM me if interested. I live in Los Angeles at 5fwy/710fwy interchange.
