160 metres of line with a diameter of 040mm is that long enough and strong enough for the type of fishing you do

Only you know the venues you fish Carphunter and the distance you fish at,although i use a pole most of the time and my knowledge of reels is very limited i do use a rod from time to time and i always make sure i have a good spool capacity of line,on the lake i fish i use a good 200 meter spool because if i hook up on a good carp then i know i have the line to let it run and 200 meters is about the max it could go so think about the venues you are going to target and the kind of running distance the carp could go....is 160 meters of line alright?
