I've got 20# gel spun on my 12 wt rod (the reel is samllaer than it should be, bought the largest reel I could afford at the time), but thus far I haven't caught anything big enough to take me into the backing...mainly due to lack of time to go fishing. You do need to be careful putting the gel spun line on so you don't "bury" some wraps. you want the stuff to come off the reel smoothly. Whatever you do, don't put any pressure on the gel spun with your fingers with line going out on a big fish...that's a sure recipe for cut fingers.
