    OH MAN! Thank you for slowly and visually explaining the line direction and spinning reel direction! Perfect for us visual learners who have to picture what a person is saying to connect the dots!! Your one video was way better than the last 4 I tried understanding today on this topic!

      Idk if direction is all that crazy serious, what i do is spool it up, take the reel off the rod, and dunk it In a pot if boiling water for 30 seconds to a minute and it deletes the spool memory and shapes the string to your reel. I just fry it off after and shoot some lubricant in both sides of the top and bottom of the spool and then screw it back on

  • @tequilaog420
    @tequilaog420 Před 3 měsíci

    You tying the square/slip knot off of the reel and showing how to line up the spool with your reel really helped me as a visual learner that spaces stuff out easily, definitely keeping this bookmarked

    Took my brand new Battle II 5000 for a spin yesterday for the very first time and I hooked a 20lb yellowtail using a Ugly Stik X2 (medium hard) rod czcams.com/users/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . This combo was recommended on some website and it did not disappoint me. The reel is smooth, the drag click is pretty cool cause i think it adds to the excitement of fighting the fish, personally the drag is my favorite part. I use braid and 300 yards will fill the entire spool. This combo is my main setup from now on although I have to disclose I am new to fishing.

    This was exactly what I needed to see as a real beginner. I'd go to cast and BOOM, squirrel's nest. I'd get so angry and storm off the water, throwing my pole in the truck and vowing never to fish again. But the next day I was back at it, same story, different day. Came across this video and had no idea that there was a certain way to put line on the pole, etc. Thanks for this. Gold mine here.

  • @shawn4900
    @shawn4900 Před 6 lety +3

    Great video Dave. I have another tip you may enjoy: because the line coming off the spool is going on generally a smaller reel size spool, it helps prevent birds nests and line issues if you take off your reel spool placing it in tap hot water for 5-10 minutes to readapt line memory to the new size . Tight lines

    For more than two seasons, the line on my spool with super line on it, was turning on the spool. I screwed with the brake thinking it was causing the problem. JUST discovered the entire spool of wire linewas spinning on the spool itself! Just as it was explained in this fantastic video!!

    I've been fishing about 65 years and still screw this up at least once a year. With braid I spool on some mono and then tie the braid to the mono with a double uni knot; sometimes tip the braid with fluorocarbon, again with a double uni. The braid won't slip when spooled on top of a few layers of mono. Good video; clear, good pace.

    Putting a bit of tape on the spool with braided line helped me out a good bit. Also I never thought of the direction of the line coming off the spool, I used to just put the spool on an axle and live with what ever. Thanks again.

    • @KnettersPracticalOutdoors

  • @ARCSTREAMS
    @ARCSTREAMS Před 2 lety

    i have seen so many vids on how they think a proper spooling should be done and no way to tell what is the correct method, now i agree with every point you made here so good job but a thought came to mind that i can spool line on my reel any way and then when im done simply get a large bearing snap swivel and attach my line to it and use the snap to attach it to a fence and then start walking back and unspooling it all the way ,then slowly put a bit of tension on the whole length of line and let go a few time then start spooling it all back on, i believe this helps stretch the memory out and the bearing swivel removes any twist on the entire line so that the whole length of it is straight without twist before you start reeling it in, and after that you can always dunk the spool in hot water and leave it till it cools down or leave it in there for a few days which helps to remove memory and shape it to that diameter of the reel spool,, let me know what you think about using the snap swivel like that

      Ron Davey, thanks for taking the time to put down that comment. I do enjoy the thought of helping other fishermen (and women) enjoy the sport more. I also have a few other fishing line videos that add a little more to the conversation. Thanks again, KPO

    Trolling a naked line to take the twist out works. Sailboaters will often trail lines for this reason. I would often trail some of my saltwater fouled lines on the way up a freshwater river as I returned to my moorage just to clean them. Dried salt is crystalline and is NOT good for expensive lines. Also, when a twisted line is put under tensile load, the twist concentrates stress damage on the line. Sail boaters call this a "Hockled Line."

  • @small-town-southern-man3573

    One thing that no one (that I know of) mentions, is that twist is almost impossible to avoid unless your spool of line is the same diameter (which is rare to beaver) as the spool on your reel. Most reel spools are 1-1/4”-1-3/4”. Most line spools are 2”-4”. So no matter what you do, a certain amount of twist will be introduced into the line as it goes from large spool to small spool. I wind my reel 20-30 turns (watching for twist building up), then pause and take the spool and flip it end over end 20-30 times (or however many times is necessary to get the twist out).

    It's all about the actual direction the line comes off the spool by manually checking it like you demonstrated. DON'T go by the label on the spool like some others tell you to do folks. I have two different spools on my bench right now, LABELS UP, coming off in opposite directions. Find out which way it comes off and DRAW THE ARROW. Great video my friend. Take care and good fishing!

      @Sparka What is never taken into consideration is the different diameter of each spool . A smaller reel spool rotates (twist) the line more than the same amount of line comming off of a larger spool.

    I’ve also seen people tie a few feet of mono to braided and tie the mono to the reel that way you don’t run into the issue of your line spinning on the reel. It’s more work than putting tape but it works very well.

You might want to check that one out too. In that vid I actually spool a reel 3 dif ways and you can see which works best. Go to my channel and I have a fishing line playlist if interested. We're never too old to learn, right? LOL. Thanks for watching, KPO.

    Excellent tutorial. Thanks. You know what to me is always frustrating about spooling line onto a spinning reel? It is the tiny grooves and cuts the line manufacturers place in the line spool as a keeper. As you are carefully and accurately winding the line onto your reel, the line keeps grabbing the grooves on the line spool. What is a super simple task ends up being a cuss festival.

  • @rickberg2986

      rick berg, thanks for adding in the backer tip. I'm looking to the defensive line to generate a pass rush this year. Rogers back with a run game is going to be nasty for opposing teams. So, yes, I agree...…….Go Pack. Thanks for watching, KPO.
