Braid for stella pg8000

Hey all, need to spool up my stella... Those using same reel or similar size, what would be the best options? Want to get 300m or as close to. Hollow or solid braid?

thanks

 Hey mate, 

I run 50lb JGK Jigman on mine.  300m fits on sweet with a few layers of mono backing (for grip).

If you're after more line on your spool, can't go past the OH Dragon.  Should get 450m plus on a 8000.

All the best!

hi mate,

I run 50lb Daiwa Accudepth Hyper PE on my 5000sw and I fit 300mtrs plus backing, depends on what lb you want but have a look at that.

 +1 on the hyper accudepth in the heavier line class, I've got the pe8, can't break that stuff. I bought the light stuff, not too great IMO. Half the price of ygk and varivas locally.

cheers
