Thanks for helping the young ones out. Some kids don't have Dads to show them this stuff.
Your comment made my day. Thank you!
Some people have disabilities and need this kind of pole and even some adults use this that are new to fishing... so don't assume they are just for kids
Comment racist 😂😂😂
@@LosoGoCrazy I'm black and I agree with him💀💀
This comment hurt me on a different level 😭
I’m 23 and just starting to get into fishing. Nobody ever showed me how to do anything and I’m having to figure it out on my own, and your video has been a giant help. Thank you so much
Same here and I’m 31
I'm 48 & a girl! Don't think I could've figured this out before CZcams.
I guess I'll chime in by saying I'm 19 and same boat
Same here last season was my first full go at it I went today for the first time this year and I’m watching this to fix my shit
Same and I’m 23 as well
Single mom here... I don't know much about how to fish other than casting and my 12 yr old daughter loves to fish. We've bought poles, learned to bait and with handy girly gadgets (hook removers, rubber gripping mits so I don't have to touch the flopping, slippery fish, nets, etc) we've done alright along the years, but have never really learned these how-to's. Somehow we've ended up w several empty reels when our lines broke or acted funky. I've just gone and bought new ones 😂. Thanks for the great tutorial bc i just respooled her favorite reel w your video, and she's going to think I'm the coolest Mom ever 😎😅.
Thank you for these videos! I am a 50 year old mom of 6. I am learning how to fish by the kindness of others. I appreciate your videos !
These kind of comments make my day! Thank you for watching and I wish you the best of success!
I'm not sure what your current skill level is, so please don't take offense at my suggestion. But here is a basic fishing rig that will catch just about anything that swims.

I chuckled at "realize your viewers will have a hard time seeing clear line..." Nice job sir. The bg music is soothing!
For real, inspired me to start a fishin' playlist on Spotify to listen to on the way to the lake.
Got many of those Z-33's close to 30 years old and still fishing now with great grandkids. Great instructional and may God bless.
My dad wasnt around to show me this growing up. I appreciate this video
Thanks for helping out this new 59 year young angler!!
I watched 5 videos before yours & this was the first one i could see how to do the knot. Thank you!!
My boss gave me his inexpensive Zebco that's been in his garage for who-knows-how-long late last year. i only just realized what line memory is & that's one of the reasons I've been having such a hard time casting. Now I've got fresh 8# mono on the reel & i did it myself :-D Thank you for your video help!
Really enjoyed this, you step by step process makes it very easy. I did have to watch the party about the slip knot several times, though I did finally figure it out. This was the best instructional video I’ve found yet. We will definitely be checking out more if your videos. Thank you.
Thank you! I was trying to figure out how to do this for my little boy so he can go fishing this weekend!👍🏼 hopefully it is as easy as it looks.
Plain and simple. Straight to the point. Good job.
This video is so helpful. We are going fishing and we realized we needed to get new line in this video covered how to install it completely.
Thx sooo much I am 13 and just started fishing to get peace and quiet
I'm 17 years old and this took me some time but I managed to do it in the end. I've watched so many videos but none were as helpful as yours. Thankyou very much.
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for this video! My dad always handled this part of fishing prep. Sadly he passed away a few months ago before he could show me how to respool a rod myself
I'm glad this video helped you out. I've seen that a lot in the comments on this one and it makes me feel good.
This helped a ton! Thank you for putting so many things that the viewers would have trouble with, like seeing the line and so you made it pink, thanks for the help!
I’ve tried this a couple of times and not had much luck. Now that I’ve seen it done I’m going to try again. I have several of dad’s old 33’s . I’d love to give one each to my grandkids. Thanks Josh.
I hope you're able to get them up and running. Just take it slow and you won't have any issues.
Great video. clear instructions. Love the tip about wrapping the line around the handle!
I’m 23 and me and two of my buddies are about to go fishing tomorrow I can’t wait ! Thanks for the video
Made it look very simple thank you for the help from the vid been needing new line just never knew how to do it
very nice video!! really helped me out with the perfect view when tying it down to the rod!!
Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for.
Da goat just got a reel like this and never knew u show me in less den two mins after u said put the top back on!
Thank you!
Thank you. You helped me (an absolutely beginner) spool my rod with ease. Again, thank you.
Thank you sooo sooo much. My kiddos wanted to get into fishing so mommy is all for it. This is definitely a fun learning process for me and them. I appreciate you so much!
Thank you I wanted to put new line on my son's pole and this helped because I had no clue what I was doing
This helped me put line on an old rod I pulled out of a pond.
Good video man very easy to understand, you explain it well, the knot is genius
Your video took the stress out of the tasks. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for this video!
thank you so much you helped me a lot i love this video. I'm going to recommend this video for my friends that don't know how to change the line.
THANK YOU!!! DEFINITELY NEEDED THIS !!!
Thank you so much I was anxious because I didn’t know how to do this but u helped me so much now I can go fishing with my friends this weekend thank you
Thanks my guy, Got my 33 and my D.A.M. Quick ready for work.
Thanks man really appreciate the video
Thanks bro me and my friends needed this
Nice Job! I also liked the background music, like easy country.
Thank you... wasn't sure what kind of knot was best to use
THOSE 33s ARE HARD TO BEAT been using mine for 30 years.
Thank you so much! 24, finding new hobbies and always liked the idea of fishing. Have no one to teach me but you helped me immensely!
Great to hear! Good luck with your fishing endeavors!
Never done this, so thanks for the help. I'm 17, so some things I need help with.
Hard as hell to see what knot youre doing for the slipknot lol
It's an overhand knot pulled tightly then another overhand knot. As you pull it tight, the first overhand comes to rest against the second.
If you know someone who does crochet, ask them to show you how to make a chain stitch. It appears to be the same.
Appreciate you tying the line with the pink line. Made it very simple to understand the knots to make
This video should be on top for this subject 👍🏼
Good job. Clear and concise
Thanks Kevin!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video
thank you, god bless. very helpful
I have a Zebco 33 vintage reel but it reels the line backwards left (counter clockwise). How can i get it to reel in right clockwise?
Thank you so much
I definitely needed this..... great video👍
Thank you! I'm glad it helped you out!
Perfect!
The use of the red twine raised this video above the others I watched. Very helpful, but I could not help but chuckle at the cliche of the 3 bass boats sitting outside a mobile home. Yeah, I lived in Arkansas too.
Funny, cowboy, but that's a mobile office building, not our house. My wife purchased that a couple of years ago when she was doing professional photography to store her gear and do her editing.
Lol, I use my kayak unless I am with my kids. Was using one of those 'fishing tubes' with the seat for a whhile. But our local lake has a couple 'dead spots' that hang onto you. I had to get a guy in his boat toss me a line to pull me loose. No matter how hard I kicked, I could not get loose. Another time when I got stuck, i hooked onto a bass and in the ensuing battle , the fish pulled me free of the dead zones grasp. I switched to a kayak after that. Plus, having a stringer with 2 big catfish keep swimming up under your legs is NOT FUN!
He doesn’t live in a mobile home 🤣
Beautiful…Just Beautiful. Thank You For Sharing Your Knowledge. I already Subscribed.
Thanks this helped me cause I got a fishing rod
The thanks this helps a lot
Thank you
Great video! :)
Another good one Josh
Thanks Lyle!
Thanks
Thanks man…
Thank you!!!
You're very welcome
Thanks alot man I messed up my dad's pole but thanks to you it is fixed and my ass is saved
Good job.
Good instructions! That’s how I have done it all my life
Which way should the line be unwound? Clockwise or counter Clockwise

Just in time. I just picked up a new 'mini spincast' rod. I took it to the lake, tied on a swivel and a bobber and cast it in. Well, I was thrilled with the cast,,,,,,,until i went to reel in and found out that when it was spooled, it was NOT secured to the reel. Goodby to a swivel, all the line that was on it, and the bobber. I should have used an old bobber. Unfortunately, the wind was blowing away from shore and soon the bobber and line were gone for good. Hopefully a boater will see it and pull it out. I hate finding discarded line and rigs and often take my kayak along the shores and collect all the I can reach. I have been doing this since I saw a bluejay struggle for over 2 hours while people attempted to reach it. It was tangled in line from a rig caught in a tree. Nobody was able to reach it and unfortunately, the bird did die. So, this video came just at the right time. 1 question tho. How long does line stay usable on a spool? I am talking about line that has NOT been used. Its stored inside the house, so temperatures are not extremes and no sun hits the storage box.
Zebco uas really uped their game on spincast reels, only issue that remains is stucky drags and myself I think its because of line lay pattern
You're absolutely right. Drag has never been a high point of spincasting reels. I've always found them to be "sticky" where they'll let out a little bit of line and then hang up for a moment before letting out some more. It's required me to set the drag lower than I would like to avoid breaking my line when a fish suddenly runs.
What do I did if the button is jammed
Takes for your help
Bruh tysm
Great video. Thank you! Curious how these spincast reels handle braid? Thoughts?
Some better than others. Heavier braid seems to work quite well.
I put 30lb on one and it does OK with heavier lures, but if I try to throw something like a round head jig with curly tail grub, it struggles to get any distance.
When braid first started getting popular in the very early 90s, my Grandpa put 40lb braid on a 33 I was using.
For a 12 year old, I felt like a pro angler. 😂
@@TheWeekendAngler awesome info thanks again! I’m going to give it a shot. Trying to set up some rigs for my 6 and 8 year old. We may try to experiment with one to see how effective it is.
I was trying to restring my rod, but my dad said He wouldn’t help me because in”his days,” they learned on their own. So I did what any kid does and went to CZcams. You helped me out a ton, thanks man!
Awesome! I'm glad it helped!
Sorry you have your dad lol
your dad kinda sounds like a jerk
@@skrimper He's teaching her how to be self reliant. I see where you're coming from, but how many kids nowadays use critical thinking?
Aw, in my case, Dad just said it was faster and easier for him to do it that to teach me. He showed me a couple things but I am learning better ways. Kudos for researching it yourself.
I found this same rod and reel in the garbage and I’m trying to figure out how to get the old line off, it’s knotted up and the reel doesn’t come apart.. I guess just keep cutting and pulling
Is it easier to feed the new line through the eyes on the pole before attaching to spool?
You can, but it's not necessary. It's a matter of personal preference.
I’ve tried this many times from many videos and cannot cast my line after I do. It looks exactly like the video yet when I hit the button to cast, nothing happens :(
I found a great tip to help remove line off the spool of fishing reels. Get a empty tube from toilet paper roll.
I did this but I’m not sure why my reel isn’t casting, it reels fine but when I press the button to cast, it doesn’t go anywhere
I have the opposite problem. I have a reel that casts fine but will not reel in.
Daddy always did maintenance when I was in school. He never showed me how to respool
Great video,and a new sub from me.
Does it work for braided line?
Sure does.
When installing the new line does it come off the spool clockwise or counterclockwise?
I usually go straight off the spool, but either way works. You won't see enough line twist to make a difference, and any twist that is in there will release on your first few casts.
If you lay the spool down label up when reeling new line on the line should come off on to the reel properly.
I found that by leaving the spool of new line in the box allowing to spin inside the box while putting (reeling) new line on the reel keeps you from getting a major headache. :)
That's a very good way to do it.
I did exactly what you said and the loop just spins in a circle and doesn’t actually reel in. I’m not sure what’s going wrong
Sounds like your loop didn't tighten up onto the spool.
What should I do if the reel when it brings line back in, continues to birdnest every time?
This is getting insanely frustrating for me. I have replaced line twice now and it doesn't make a difference. This line is barely a month old and just like the previous line, it continues to bird nest when reeling line in on the inside of the reel and then makes it impossible to cast out after that.
I don't have the money and won't for a long while to go and get new reels.
I have 2 that are refusing to cast more than about 20 ft. out and one that keeps bird nesting when reeling in.
If a spin cast reel is tangling when reeling it in, it's time to do a thorough inspection for broken parts. Most likely, the pin that extends out of the bail and wraps the line around the spool.
I hope there will be a video sometime to show us how to properly maintain and repair reels.
@@mariestoves7653 I'd be happy to. Sometimes it gets difficult to come up with ideas for how to videos. Is there a specific type of real that you would like to see a video on?
Bought a pole and a fishing license, have no clue what I’m doing
Can you put fluorocarbon on zebco 33 reel?
Yes you can
Doesn't work, tried that method several times and each time the line coming off the new spool twists up and tangles even if I make sure it is coming off in the same direction. What am I doing wrong?
Try this, it sometimes works: instead of coming off the narrow side of the spool like the line is wound on, point the broad (round) side of the spool towards the reel and let the line come off the end of the spool similar to how a spinning reel casts.
I'm new to finishing and believe I bought the wrong type of line for my rod can anybody tell me is there a specific type of rod to add on my spincaster ?
Any good medium or medium heavy action rod around 6' or so will work well for most fish species. As for line, most spincasting reels like 10lb monofilament or 12lb.
The heavier the line, the less you'll be able to fit on your reel.
@@TheWeekendAngler thanks fam God bless u 🙏🏿 shopping for new line first thang in da morning
My slipnot never worked and I couldn’t get the line on the reel
How did you do the slip not
You tie a single overhand knot towards the end of the line. Then you tie a single overhand knot around the line, keeping the first overhand knot on the outside of the second.
As you pull the slip knot tight around the spool, it is only able to slip until it hits the first knot.
I know that explanation is about as clear as mud, so I'll do a video on how to tie it and post it Saturday for you.
How many cranks did you do
Enough to fill the spool. It varies from reel to reel. What I do is periodically remove the cover and see how close the line is to being full.
I am 54 and never knew how to do that the right way.
Hopefully this helped you out. Thank you for watching
Why does no one ever use the uni knot on spincasters? Feels like a better knot for the spool.
I'm sure it would work. I use the arbor knot for all my reels just because it will slip on itself until it hits that overhand knot.
I'd never thought about using a uni. You've got me wanting to try it now.
Dayum I been trying to to put new line on my daughters fishing pole I got her for Christmas but it just keeps tangling up and not spooling
Are you holding tension on the line as you start to reel?
@@TheWeekendAngler sorry new to fishing, I was doing it with the cap off 😅
@@elmavr that would do it! Hope you were able to get it all set up.
@@TheWeekendAngler yup that helped putting the cap back on thanks
My dad don’t care to put time aside to teach me this
this good yo edits just a lil slow
I can’t figure it out no matter how many times I try my knots want hold just gonna buy a new reel
I don't have a video dedicated to it, but I'm sure there's a video showing the "Arbor Knot" it's the one I use whenever I'm putting line on a reel.
