Can I run monel on the CW-453D reel? Want to pair this with a Tony Maja Bunker Spoon rod. Open to suggestions as well. 
1 Answer
Hi Tyler, We do not recommend using the Okuma CW-453D reel with monel and would recommend you to look at the Shimano Tekota Levelwind ( https://www.tackledirect.com/shimano-tekota-levelwind-reels.html ), or the Penn Senator 113 ( https://www.tackledirect.com/penn-special-senator-h2-reels.html ). These reels have an aluminum spool and are designed with monel in mind. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with! Tight lines!

Kevin,

The Okuma Cold Water LC 453D can be used for copper line trolling as it has a wide mouth levelwind and a large spool capacity.  Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.
