I use 330LDs on my 12 board rods and WWB and I almost always use all umbrellas and I haven't had an issue yet...I even used them last spring on the charter boat and they have held up perfectly. I also use them (330LDs)this time of year when pulling big umbrellas with inline weights and Storm baits as boat rods. Once again the have held up fine.
For the deep, boat rods with a lot of inline weight I use 113's.
Joe Cox, of "The Reel Thing" reel repair business told me that 99% of the parts for a 330LD are the same as a 330GT and that there are enough of those parts out there in inventories to last for the foreseeable future. Having said that, I still plan to pick up a couple of NIB 330LDs just in case...I can't stand mismatched gear.
