Ooh yeah.......I forgot to answer your question.

I've never kept track but I'm confident in saying that I replace my braid ever 2-3 years and when I do I usually buy it online (amazon/ebay) or at a local store but thats rare. Because I'm not replacing it often I don't really waste my time looking for the best deal, if I need it, I order it and I'm done. Personally, I'd rather order it from the comfort of my home and not waste an hour of my time driving to and from a shop just to save a $3 dollars.

If you're replacing line on a handful of reels it makes sense to look for the best deal but if you're loading it on one or two reels just go online and order it, don't waste your time driving around town looking for the best deal.

As far as top shot goes I use 40lb seaguar on all of my lines.


Almosg forgot to mention that all of my reels are loaded with 65lb powerpro
