      @@alvarez321if you untangle a backlash like shown in this video, it will create memory on Mono or Fluoro lines and can cause terrible wind knots with Braid line
      The best way to untangle a backlash is leaving the spool open and slowly, calmly pull your line out. When the line begins to feel stiff, pull the loops in your spool and make sure there are no knots. Repeat these two until you pull the whole backlash plus 5 yards of line out. Tighten drag to max and put your thumb on the line and reel in slow

    What I do is I pull the line out of the eye of the reel until I hit a loop on the bail that prevents me from pulling more of the line out of the reel, I pull at the loop or loops on the bail that are holding the line back until I can pull the line out again and continue this process until the birds nest is completely gone. This can take time depending on how bad the birds nest is, and from my experience this usually works 90% of the time.

    hold your thumb lightly on the spool during your cast to slow it down near the end, also tighten the left dial so the spool spins just a little slower. backlash is usually from the spool still having momentum when your lure already hit the water.

    Haven’t had one that required respooling… yet.
    Somehow they work out.

      Yes me works way better than this bs this make your line overlap and knot up so you just get way more bird nests that regular

    What if the knot, does not come undone as in you have, multiple knots

    You also have to pull the line after applying pressure

    I do exactly what you say not to do and it works just fine for me 🤷‍♂️

      That can damage your line tho because the loop goes over the main line going through if you pull that loop will make a crease in the line

    With braid it’s better to pull it out and then just reel it back in

    Or don't use monofilament and use braided line. You will have more adjustment with your drag and a better time fishing.

    I just cast it in if it’s backlash and then I release the bail start pulling out the line until the loop shows itself after I just hold on tight to the line and just reel in it doesn’t always work sometimes I have to unloop a little bit and next yeah.

    That picture looks exactly like Southern BC Canada. Would have thought the OK stood for Okanogan.

    I think i have mine setup I’m not rly smart on this typa stuff but in general I just cast mine out far and I don’t even put my finger or thumb on the spool mine doesn’t back lash I usually start reeling before it hits the water so that’s probably why? Idk
