THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
After 76 years I finally know how to do this. Thanks
Richard this is how I put my line on. I have ever since I watched this video not long after you made it. Works like a charm, no line twists for years now. Thank you sir!
Man with a brain full of knowledge and a kind heart and always passing his knowledge off to other fisherman. Love ya Mr Gene. Mean that.
Same here, he’s awesome
Well put.....besides the brain part.....just funning with ya Mr. Fishing Machine, you are definitely the man, and always willing to share your knowledge , thank you for that and taking the time to post all the videos, that's time consuming. (hek I couldn't even spell knowlage)
This man is the best. You can just tell there's not a phony bone in his body and he knows what he's talking about
Yeah but its all bad info....
@@forestcityfishing4749 How? I’ve learned almost every thing I know about crappie from him…
I've been fishing all my life all 64 years and that is the first time I ever herd of that I surely will try it a special thanks to our veterans and you richard gene
Best spooling video on CZcams hands down.
Recently I left my line in my truck bed for 2 weeks which 5 of those days it rained lol 😂. Since I’ve put it on I haven’t had any twist!
Thank you. Finally a solution to a life long problem.
I cast so much further now, kids have less issues every time we go, this video changed fishing for me no doubt.
I've seen all kinds of "professionals" show how to put line on the reel but I've NEVER heard of soaking the spool in water. You definitely take the prize for this very helpful hint.
Thanks for the shout out to Billbob. I know him well, and yep, he's a great fisherman, and a great representative for crappie fishermen everywhere. Thank you for your service Billbob. And thank you Richard for sharing.
America's favorite multiple personality fisherman (fishermen?) come thru again. I was just getting ready to pull my rods out of the garage and prep for early spring with new line and saw this. Never thought to soak it in water. I will give this a try and once again a big thank you for the knowledge. You are a true master of your sport.
Man I hope you get paid well for your vids cuz you deserve it and so much more you deserve shows,sponsers,your own fishing products...wish I had someone like you in my life...your the definition of a good person....they don't make em like you no more..that MOLD was broke long time ago ya know type that grew up with no cell phone or internet had to have respect and honor had to stand for something when your word was everything people did things based on the persons word and handshake..
hats off to bob. I am retired military, 22 years. Was in SEA 67-74. Sawed a lot, but hats off to us all. Thank you Sir. Yup, you to Gene.
Thanks Richard Gene! I will start soaking my spools from now on.
Simply the best fishing information in the world. Basic and well done. And that theme song needs to be on the radio
I just finished spoiling up my baitcaster and I knew how to spoil a spinning reel but I just wanted to hear you talk about it! Good vid
I've been fishing for years and if anyone ask about fishing, I tell them about Richard Gene the fishing machine(I might say they have a clown on the internet that gives some of the best advice that anyone can understand, and it is totally usable), you are great in what you do, Thank you!
WOW!!! One of the few videos that show putting the line on by allowing the spool to turn instead of off the end. Thumbs up!!!
Richard, After seeing you use this line in different videos, I purchased some on in both 4lb and 6lb, and love it! However, yesterday I had so many wind knots that like you said, I just gave up and went home. :(
Thanks for taking the time to teach on such important subjects like spooling your line. I'm gonna a respool my reel today using your technique. There are so many voices out there ... but you're is one I have come to trust. God bless and tight lines!
Wish I had watched this video yesterday. Put line on 3 reels earlier today and I made a geezer mess of it. Going out to soak the rest of my spools. Thanks Richard.
Richard Gene Sir! You are truly an Ambassador of the sport of fishing! You are true to life with your dedication and inspiration to teach others. God Bless 🙏🏻
Richard here is a great tip for putting line on a spinning reel. BTW, I enjoyed the video. Get an empty peanut butter jar that these 1/4 lb spools will fit in and drill a small hole in the center of the side (about midway of the spool of line) and thread the end of the line of the spool through and the end can be secured with tape after you have finished filling your reel. Put the top back on the peanut butter jar and then you could hold the jar with your feet and apply tension on the line as you are rapidly filling the reel.
I was taught never to spin the line off using an axial rod. You add a twist each turn doing it like shown with each turn of the bail. You are to allow the coils to unwind in the direction of the bail rotation by placing the coils in line with each other.
Yes thank you Bill Bob for your service, I to am a Vietnam veteran, And Richard I am sorry for your loss of your brother.
But as always another great informative video, and I thank you.
God bless you and your family.
Richard Gene, I’m a young beginner fisherman and I wasn’t even sure if I was doing it right, but I followed your video and it came out beautifully. Thanks a million.
Your hero jimmy Huston puts his on the same way the reel turns. Most all spinning reels turn counter clockwise so I flip the spool to unwind that way and have had good luck so far. Tkx for the video
I have been watching your videos none stop and proud to say everything you say works plain and simple. Your the truth when it come to crappie brother . much love from ohio...
Thank you Richard for sharing 👍. Take care and God bless you all
Thanks, I have been having so much trouble spooling my new reels & the older ones I've reconditioned for my grandkids. It is SOOOO annoying & expensive. I also appreciate seeing that you're using the line I just ordered!
Never heard of soaking the line, but I will try it. Thanks. As to re-lining solo, I have a 3/8" wood dowel. All my fishing line is kept in a milk crate. I pass dowel through one side of the crate, then through the spool, then through the other side of the crate. Peel off some line and thread it through another hole in the crate. This gives an even tension while spooling.
My first time ever spooling a reel today and did it with this video. Thank you sir for passing on your knowledge
Richard, you are my go to master Guru. You explain things so real people can understand. I can't thank you enough for what you do to help us all be better fishermen.
Yeah great video thank you Richard Gene TFM. I remember being taught to soak the spooled line on my removable spool from a spinning reel in medium hot tap water for about twenty minutes until the water is room temperature. This is from way before the internet when you still had things like pagers. Also, one trick I use to keep a steady light pressure on the line when spooling it is to let a hooded sweatshirt lay on the line on the carpet between the reel I'm filling and the feed spool. I do keep my feed spool placed horizontally I don't know why I was just told it's best and I always had good luck with that. I get great casts this way even in to the wind with very light lures. Keep fishing, keep building up our community of Fishermen and be good to each other.
Awesome video with a lot of knowledge that's very needed. I'm trying to teach my kids everything I know about fishing and we've also been watching your videos for a little while now and your videos is teaching me more than I already knew 😅.
No more line twist for me, it works! Thanks Richard.
Richard, after watching all the videos on spooling line with all kinds of gadgets, this should save many people a lot of money. Sure wish I would have found you when I lived on Guntersville Lake.
Richard you need to try this l!
Splice your new line onto backing line just spool it on. NOW remove the spool from reel and soak it for fifteen minutes in a cup of warm/hot water. This will confirm the new line to spool and no line twist! More time to fish and no COLON problems!!
Richard Jean, I built a contraption to hold my spool that uses a spring and nut to set tension on the line spool. Never heard of soaking line in water before transferring it to my reel but I'm gonna try it out next time. Thanks Sir for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. Stay safe out there and happy fishing too ya.
Enjoy your videos thank for tips and secrets I followed your instructions on this video. It’s amazing it works like a charm. Two months fishing no line twist. You da man hope to bump into ya on one of my trips to the lake
Thanks for the tip Richard - works great! I minimized the work getting the residual glue off the spool by spraying it with WD-40. After it sits for a while, you can scrape most of the glue off with a pocket knife. Another application of WD-40 and the rest of the glue washes off easily with soap and hot water.
Thank you Richard for all your hard work putting these videos out it's been such a help ! I'm going to start soaking my line too ! I went bass fishing yesterday with a bunch of sunfish , waiting the 10-15 seconds before setting the hook seems like an eternity LOL but is well worth it ! Thanks again !!!
I’ve tried to spool a spinning reel but couldn’t. I was told to stand the spool on the floor but no matter what I did, i kept getting line twist. So I went back to a bait caster. I’m gonna try your technique and hopefully I can diversify my rod collection. Thank you sir!
I put it in with a pencil through the spool and with it coming off the top of the spool but never knew about soaking it. Thanks for the tip
I thought I was the only one who soaked their line for days! Listen to Richard people this is the ticket! I accidentally at first left a huge spool of expensive 40lb mono (Momoi Diamond for saltwater) in a bucket of water for a few weeks. That line was as straight as it gets not even a bend! I spooled it onto large spinning reels and was absolutely amazed how it casted. Gotta spool the correct direction absolutely but people know that. Soaking mono for at least a week is the real deal.
Jeff Smith hey man I tried this and the line was still curly when I put it on my reel should I have let the line dry before putting it on ?? I pulled out out of water and spoiled it up
@@georgehaidar3963 normally no I like to spool the line on freshly removed from the bucket. What's interesting is even if you leave monofilament submerged in water for an hour it should loose some of the spool memory so for it to still be coiled after a long period is odd. The heavier the line the less effective it is but I've still found tremendous improvement in line up to 50-60 pound test as long as it's fresh. Was the line entirely submerged? What type of line was it? Was it new and fresh? The longer the line is on the spool the more engrained that coil is. This one has me stumped, I've been doing this for years and it always helps in my experience. The line won't be literally straight but it should remove 80% or so of the coiling I'd say. Usually it just looks wavy and never coiled when I do this.
Jeff Smith the line is a year old in the pack and it was me crappie hi vis 6 lb test
@@georgehaidar3963 very odd. Even 20 minutes in water should help some, guys have been submerging mono in water forever. I don't think a year would do it if it's been stored indoors. The only thing I can think of would be having it stored either outdoors, or in a garage where the temperature isn't controlled. Mono isn't the toughest line in terms of shelf life, it doesn't do well in hot or cold temps or in high humidity. If it was stored indoors you've got me stumped. Like I said even a short bath submerged in water should help uncoil the line. I've had spools that I've had indoors for longer than a year that have done very well in water. I'm really not sure.
Jeff Smith it was in my basement so that might of had something. To do with it I’m going to try it out Saturday and let you know how it works hope I don’t gotta change it
Thanks for the tip, definitely will try this week. Those wind knots been driving me crazy. I knew about the direction off the spool along with keeping the tension the same as the line goes on, but I never knew about soaking the line before hand. Keepem comin cause they’re great tips from a pro.
DID NOT KNOW THIS! Havent even considered it. Soaking in water,talk about being a MASTER of your equipment! Now...I appreciate finding your site so much more! Is this maybe one of the reasons Ole Elmo is so adverse to fishing with you...threw ALL HIS rods in to the water? You could let him borrow one of your..SURELY! LMAO Sir, you have NO IDEA what finding your channel has blessed me! Even though I cant fish like I use to(when I do its limited) DANG MS..but watching your videos..from places I am well familiar with, keeps me from a total Pitty Party. It brings back SO many memories, its enough to get me past the fact that MS has robbed me of a Passion! You were a GOD SEND,Sir. I was in a rough place when I first found your channel, so you have done more to boost my spirits..than ANY Anti-Depressant on the market! In fact..I quit taking them, NO BS! Well not only you...but it SURE DID HELP! Long story short....you saved my life! I would like to think that I am not really that week minded....but I dont know..and thank God you helped me NOT to find out!
Great story man 👍 wish you the best
Exactly what he said. Great story!
I'm sure Richard hasn't read your comment yet due to there being a ton of them but when and if he does, he'll surely reply because it'll touch his heart just like it did mine my friend. No joke. I noticed this comment is a couple years old but i wanted to give you a virtual handshake 🤝 and say thank you for lifting me up! I love to hear positive things about folks. Hope you are continuing to do well and know that there's people that care even if you never met them. God bless!
@@damonjohnson8337 Hey Brother! TYSM..I am doing much better. WOW, thanks for comment!
@@adamparsons1725 You got it my friend. Glad you are well and great to hear from you!
Definitely the right way to do it I mimic everything you showed and it's the first time I didn't have a problem with my fluorocarbon curling up
Hi Richard. This is the best advice I've ever gotten about filling spinning reels. I used to spool up then remove the spool, strip the bearings, drag parts then soak the whole spool in hot water until it cooled, then re-assemble. Your way is well thought out and way easier. Thanks for the advice...and good fishin'........Bob
Thank You Richard, I will give it a try!!!
Game changing video! BillBob thank you for your service and I hope you are catching fish like no other!
Well now then there Elmo! Thats good enough for me to try. I,m learning! Thanks for the mention of BillBob and ALL our Viet-Nam vets.
They got the shaft politically back in their day but the hippies were WRONG! Those men are great American heroes!
I got it soakin right now. Clean spool a course. Ur a stand up guy Richard. :-)
You learn something everyday. Love the videos and your knowledge on your equipment and how to be on the fish. Thank you!
Appreciate the pointer sir!! Theyyyyyy
Bless his soul, glad he made it home Thanks him for his service
Richard, YOU DA MAN!! Would love to meet you one day!!
Thanks for the tip. This solved my line twist issues. Love the videos. Keep them coming. My buds and I love watching them.
Thanks for the video .the most in Formal own CZcams.
Keep up the good work and again, thank you.
Great tip, at 64 years of age and all the fishing I have done I had never heard of this, spools of line sitting in a bucket of water as I type, my only problem was removing the label, the stuff I bought I think they used a glue that is indestructible, try to remove the label on a spool of Sufix Hi-Vis Yellow, "IMPOSSIBLE"
What a great tip! I tried it and I like it. Wow, Best re-spool ever. Thank you.
I've always been told to put it on reel the same way it comes off spool. Jimmy Houston and roland Martin of does it that way. But scene you the man and know your stuff iam gonna try your way. My opinion you're up there with Jimmy Houston on catching fish loved your trip Jimmy's ranch tkx for all the info GQ
Did it work?
@@talaverajr391 it worked don't know that works any better than spooling it on the same way it comes off spool
Thanks and God bless you and yours!
Thank you Richard for all the information you put out there are all the fishing shows we have watch as we were kids nobody gives more information than you one day I would like to meet you and go fishing with you
If you have another fishing rod with you you can always use it to help you spool by puncturing it with the eyelet and using the rod to keep it on its actually really effective I've done it before.
I do similar technique, only I soak the spool in Hot water for about 30 minutes , then put it on my reel works like a champ !
This is the best video I have seen on the subject of putting new line on your reel. Thanks Richard!
Learn so much from you Mr. Richard thank you for all the videos you make have learned so much more!!!! God bless you all!!!
Hello from Sydney, Australia.
Great video..Always learning with Richard Gene...great fisherman...great teacher
Thank you, Richard I never knew some of those tips concerning putting new line on.
I did this and I can't believe how much that helps stop all most all line twist!
thanks Richard I would have never thought of that water trick now I can fill my spools like you do, to the brim. best of luck
Thanks Richard Jean you're the best! I'm soaking my first spool now!
Awsome tip!!! I have no more line problems at all! My catch ratio has improved!!!
Thanks for the tip! I lost my biggest strrike because of wind knot!! Keep up the good work!!
Mindblown never knew this Richard Gene fishing machine whoooo!
Thank you very much gene for showing us what to do putting on line on spinning real and many other tips god bless
Very good Tip Richard! Thanks.
Great tip. Watched this video several times. This technique always works for me. Thank you for the top. -Tennessee Smoky
Thanks, Richard Gene. I always enjoy your videos. They make me laugh.
Thank you for this video RG. I've been fishing 40 years and never knew this. I'm talkin' bout wooooooo!
Thanks again! Good info. Will throw the spool in water for a week now.
Thank you Mr. Gene! This video is just as valuable & informative as your fishing technique videos. Salute to the Crappie Sensei. 🙏🏾
I ALWAYS enjoy watching your videos Richard, Thank you for sharing, and God Bless you my friend
Well I learnt something new once again. I always wondered how to get that damn curl out of my line.
Richard,
Thanks so much for posting this. I am soaking line tonight. If this solves my challenge it will open up a whole new world for spinning reel fishing. I have the most problems when I try and put 10-12 pound line on a spinning reel
I'm gonna try this "soak n spool" technique. I always used to spool up the line like this holding the spool with my feet and at the end hold the spool real tight and tie it with a swivel to the barn door and walk back n forth about 50 yards pulling drag and reeling it back up a few times until it behaved itself. But the line was always unruly until it'd saw water a few times. I can't believe I never thought of soaking the whole spool! I bet this came about because of a leaky boat or bad weather soaking your taclke box somehow for you to figure it out. Thanks boss!
Richard your channel is so enjoyable and informative! One of the best channels on CZcams 👍 thank you!
Mr. Richard, Thank you so much for this valuable information. I usually take my reel to Southern Outdoor Sports and they have a machine that does it in just a couple of minutes. But I still have those loops and twist depending on the brand line. I will be giving my spools of fishing line a nice long bath from now on, LOL. You are THE MAN !!!!!!Thank you againRodney
Thank you Mr Richard Gene. This has been a BIG ISSUE FOR ME. I just bought new line also. I will be soaking it asap. I'll just have to wait to put my new line on though. You know what they say patience is a tree with bitter roots yet the fruit is sweet.
Thanks Richard soaking it on the reel in real warm water for 30 minutes will do it
richard is one of the most helpful creators on youtube
Hi Richard I found a modified version of your way if your in a bind and need new line. Spool it up like you mentioned counterclockwise off and on then remove the spool and drop it in warm water for about an hour or two or three. It casts great. So good I'm probably going to catch a few birds and squirrels lol.
Thank you for your knowledge fishing machine!!! Keep them coming and God Bless America!!!
Richard I thought you said at the beginning of the video colon problems!!.. hahaha!!!.... Great Video as usual Buddy!!!!.... and Thank you to your brothers for their sacrifice and Mr.BillBob!!...My Dad was also in Vietnam and sacrificed his sanity and family... Semper Fi!!!
OMG!!!! YEP! I did as well...and I USE TO live in DREADED Elephant sanctuary zone. Its sort of like Spanglish...but with a Southern accent. LOL I keep trying to get him to wear an TENNESSEE hat...he does mostly film in Tn. river lol He better be sure he has a fishing license though...LONG story but my record as to times I have been checked by DNR guys is 3! Same day...wearing an Tn Orange colored outfit. It was much colder than I had packed for...luckily my Tournament partner packed extra sweat pant style clothes! Those DNR guys, each time, passed up boat after boat to check us first!!!! I didnt mind... winning against them and every other team.....was well worth the hassle! Thank you, Arkansas lol Still HATE that song "Maybe it was Memphis" in the Payton years lol
Richard you make everything fishing interesting 😂
Thanks Richard for the video. I have tried a lot of methods and nothing works that well. Will give this a try. Thanks again.
Thanks for the tip my father was a Korean and Vietnam veteran U.S

Thankyou so much. I’ve been experiencing line coil problems for years. No more.
Never knew or thought about my line like that. Thank you.
