What does it cost these days to spool a C3 Abu with a mono 20 lb line and what make would you recommend?

Nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught.

It depends on how much line you need to put on.  You didn't tell us what size of C3 you have (6500, 5500???).  I just go to Berry's and spool my reels up with mono - might be 15 bucks per reel plus or minus.  Or - buy a spool (Maxima Ultragreen One Shot 220 yd) and put it on yourself.

Spooled with Maxima UG at Highwater tackle for 10$. I might try seaguar or berkley vanish next season or the season after.

My C3 is 6500.

As I remember Freds' was a little cheaper but I haven't spooled at Freds for two years and I just don't want to waste any of my time spooling the line on a day that I should be getting it wet instead! :)

Thanks to everyone who replied.
