I am not sure. Rather than respool all my reels with new 30lb mono, I top shotted with 300' of 50lb power pro. 2 lines seemed to break around where the rubber bands where and the other was deep umbrella. (yes i lost $$$ on tackle). Due to how rough it was I moved to #64 bands and triple wrapped them. I am not sure why it happened. I doubt it was the rods as it was 3 different poles (one tandem, one from the solo chute side, one deep umbrella boat rod). I may have a spool of bad line as the drag of 330gti isnt tremendous

I am considering going to something thicker though as handling the 50lb is hard on the hands due to how thin it is (diameter of 12lb mono). My hands feel raw after 3 days of banding lines
