Backing

It is always nice to have some backing that looks good and visually sets off your line whilst on the reel.

I've used fluorescent orange and green in the past. As the Zane reel has some blue accents and as the saltwater line that still has to arrive is a pale blue, I thought that a bright blue backing may look quite good.

Here is 400 yards of 30lb backing from the US. I'll see if it fits on the reel which apparently can take 300 meters of backing plus a WF10 line. I'll see how much backing can go on the reel with the Scientific Anglers WF9 textured line. I'll obviously trim off what is not needed.

This is Backing is made in the USA by Woodstock Line Co. Check them out at The Angler's Connection.
