Size of that shark is not all that it's cracked up to be. On top being at the end of the pier, with 300 yard more line to work with from the get go.
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So your saying over 1000yrds is over kill for a 14ft Hammer that's fast as hell? N that a 14/0 and a 16/0 is over kill for the BIG Hammers and Bulls
Yea close... I say 13 1400 yards of line that can hold 60lbs of drag is plenty.
Lets say you make a super long drop around 500 yards you hook a monster Hammer, if that hammer can pull another 800 yards of line off with almost 70lbs of drag near the bottom of your spool I don't think your going to catch that fish with any more line. If you have 1000 + yards of line out standing on the beach with a monster hooked up, the odds of you getting that fish is almost 0. 1000 yards of line out in the watter is going to get you cut off on something because it will be dragging on the bottom during the fight I don't think you could even keep braided line from getting a huge belly and be dragging around.
I have not caught a 14 foot hammer and I am no pro but I have seen what 600 yards of mono off my spool on a shark does you cant even feel a 6 foot fish with that much 100lb mono in the water. The water creates more drag on the fish then your reel does.
You could run 300lb braid on a T-rex and destroy any 12 14 16/O reel loaded with mono.
Like I said its just my opinion and I have no true facts on a 14 foot hammer. I am just making my own judgements sorry if i pissed you off.
i could not have said this better, thank you
I know this is an old post, and i have to tell you i looked over this posts couple of times, and i keep forgetting to ask this question.
IF and ONLY IF, this reel is rated at 1,500yds at 200lb, then why "big lou" wrote in the first post that, and i quote:
I did spool it up the 18/0 once directly from a 16/0 (just to see the difference),,,,
the 18/0 holds about 100 to 150 yds less than the 16/0.
????
I never knew that a Penn 16/0 can hold 1,650yds of line at 200lb mono line. You do the math 
Also, i never understood WHY on Everol's website same 18/0 reel is presented that hold 1,350yds at 130lb mono and same website different page, is presented as 1,500yds at 200lb mono.
What's even worse - the fact that some other websites they present this reel as having 1,500yds 200lb mono line capacity while others 1,350yds 130lb mono. So - what's up with Everol?
maybe it has a secret line compartment that only some people know about. i dont know but it alway seems that different websites and people say reels can hold different amount of the same lb test so i try never to rely on how much line i will get on a reel of any size by what someone else says.

i believe his 18/0 is a early model with a bigger arbor then the new ones also. so thats why there is less line on it.
i still like my secret line compartment idea...that makes sense shawn. so it would be the same with the new and old senator spools?
Ya he even said this was like a prototype the real ones hold more line
prototype? Ok, so if that was a prototype, let's do the math again based on that "prototype". A Penn 16/0 holds 1,000yds of 130lb line, now, lets take just 100yds NOT 150yds, we'll have 900yds. So, basically he's "prototype" holds 900yds at 130lb line - therefor my question still stands - What's up with Everol?
You'll gonna love this part: that reel - "the prototype" is described as an 18/0 - right? - well if THAT PROTOTYPE REEL IS AN 18/0 - then Penn International 130VSX that holds 975yds at 130lb mono is an 18/0? or because holds 75yds more mono line, makes it an 19/0?
Don't believe everything that you read, be smart and filter the c**p.
On one thing i agree with you, that reel based on the numbers was a prototype. I'm not saying this sarcastically or anything, i'm saying this because the "release" version of the so called 18/0 holds 1,350yds of 130lb mono. Even though they advertise this reel on some website that would hold 1,500yds of 200lb mono - that's not true - that's BS.
Ok, so now that all this line capacity is getting cleared up somewhat - i have another question:
Would you pay $800 to gain 375yds of line since for the "release" version of Everol 18/0 where is priced at $1,800 vs an Penn International 130VSX that cost about $1,000?
Here is another one - would you pay $600 more in difference for an Everol 18/0 to gain 350yds mono, instead of buying a Shimano TiagraA TI130A that holds 1,000yds at 130lb mono priced at $1,200?
If you think you'll be getting for $1,800 Everol 18/0 that holds 1,500yds at 200lb -you better buy this reel from a place where you CAN return it, otherwise don't be surprised if you'll only gonna be able to fit about 1,350yds at 130lb of mono.
And here is the funny part - when you purchase ANYTHING ON ANY WEBSITE - online, before you push the "SUBMIT" button there is a "check box" that you MUST click on to purchase your items, by doing that, you LEGALLY AGREE that you ACCEPT that THAT WEBSITE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY "TYPING ERRORS" which includes also the part were they show you 1,500yds 200lb written for 18/0 Everol reel.
Overall, you have to love the Internet Retail Industry, right?
no reel is gonna hold exactly what the specs say. because we dont know what line they used to figure it out. all mono is different diameters.

I agree with you on different type of mono used to make they calculations when comes to line capacity, but did you convert 1,500yds of 200lb mono to 130lb mono line? Take any type of mono you can find, convert that to the same brand, and let's see how big of a difference you will come up from that conversion.
I mean if I haf the money I would buy it over a penn anyday better quality higher drag more line and doesn't need to be serviced but once a decade but that's just me
How about over Shimano TiagraA?
P.S. ANY REEL is recommended to be serviced once every one or two years IF you use it mainly on the beach were sand invasion is unavoidable.
