Ah, sorry if that was confusing. Chronarch 100 gets 10 or 12lb test only. It's too small for 16. I probably only bring that reel one out of five trips. You're in So-Cal so fishing light line makes total sense. The water is typically much murkier up here and I get away with heavy line. I also believe very strongly that I can get away with heavier line with triple fish camo vs regular mono and even some florocarbons. All you have to do to prove line visibility between brands to yourself is look at it underwater. There's a huge variation in mono and florocarbon when it comes to line visibility. I'd take 30lb triple fish florocarbon over 20lb clear Trilene Big Game any day of the week. Don't believe me, just look at it in the water. I'd take 16lb triple fish camo over 12lb triple fish silicon any day too. When people say things like "florocarbon is invisible under water" they obviously haven't looked at all brands of florocarbon. Some are really good and some are not. My confidence is 100% shot if I look in the water and the line stands out like a rope. That's a big reason I don't like braided line, I just can't picture in my mind the fishing being dumb enough to eat it. Don't believe what people say, believe what you see for yourself in the water!!!
