That is a good way to lose the fish of a lifetime, would'nt it suck to lose a 25lb steelie cause the knot broke! Cabela's sells maxima in 3300yd service spools, 10 or 12lb test for $51.99 thats about 1/4 the price of the filler spools. I have been working on my spool for a couple yrs, I keep it in a cool dark place,and have found it to be as strong as new.
