How to Spool 3 Reels (EVENLY) With 1000m of Line (using backing line)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 май 2024
- Here’s the perfect method to split 1000m of mono between 3 reels when you're using backing line.
Each time we put new line on our reels, we’ve got the same old problem of trying to fit 1000m of line across 3 spools. It’s particularly tricky on big pit reels when the total capacity of the spools is greater than the amount of new line we’ve got on. The best way to make sure your reels are perfectly spooled is to use the ‘reverse spooling’ method which I show in detail in this video.

I do it exactly the same apart from I only use 250 meters on each spool , then chuck the left over 250 meters on the original spool in my bag, that way if you have a issue and damage the line on one of your reels while fishing ,you can just remove and you have a spare 250 to put back on
I do this. Always works perfectly.
I just do not understand why it is so difficult for sellers of reels to add some reductions to the package like Shimano does ...
Yes, they are certainly extremely useful.
i basicly do the same thing, but take the line off on an old spool of line, nuts and bolt with my drill.
When i take old line off, i do it with distance sticks. but i set them 4 meters apart. most of the time i take off 230m so i can fill 4 reels with 1000m spool and got some reserve left
This is an awesome top can't believe been fishing 35 yrs and never thought of it so just been buying 2 spools definitely gunna save me some money over time 🎉 🎉 making some great content going to try talk missis into a France trip so I can come to your lake for a week always wanted to go France and your lakes number 1,2,3 on my to fish list. Hopefully I'll see you end of this summer maybe this time next year. But in the meantime I'll keep enjoying the awesome content tight lines Mr Collins hopefully see you on the bank.
Wonderful to hear! Glad you're enjoying the videos. If you have any questions about the venue, let me know. The venue is very popular with couples 😊
Good thing if whatever company puts a marker after each 250 m like Fox. Then counting is not needed. First spool mainline until 250 mark pops out, tie your backing, top up the spool with it. Start Respooling all of this on new empty spool until backing line sits on its place. Now you only need a precision caliper to measure diameter of backing for next spool. Finish spooling the rest of mainline . First spool finished an You have all parameters now for the next spool, but now you start normally with backing until you reach memorized diameter from caliper...
I have multiple sets of engineering callipers but none of them are large enough to measure the diameter of a bulk spool. Nash Bullet has those line marker stickers on them, counting off 250m gradations but they are inaccurate because they are not accurately attached to the spool.
I use a line counter 👍🏻
Great video & well explained. this will come in very useful for alot of people 👍
Great tip for sure, i need to re spool my reels in the next few weeks and i will be using this method, thanks for sharing.👍👍🎣🎣
Cool mate 👍
Just a very good video very well explained brilliant. Thank You for taking the time and trouble to do what you do much appreciated.👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣
Thank you this is very useful 🔥🔥🔥
Great to hear mate 😊
Exactly how I do it as well. Or use a line meter which is precise enough.
Excellent advise here as usual though 😊!
One thing that would greatly help spoolimg up would be if producers would start selling tools for spooling up!
There are hundreds of useless gimmicks out there but nothing to help us spool up and measure line effectively.
We still have to drop spools in a bucket of water or have spools flying around and soaking everything.
Get to grips producers and make products that are actually needed!
I’ve just punched a hole through an old bucket and stuffed a bit of dowel through it to hold the spool of line. Works a treat
Yeah, I've tried that too, nice little trick 👍
I really had a laugh when the line wasnt under the bailarm. Ahhhh jeez weve all been there Matt.
Ever tried a wet cloth wedged in the butt eye to keep pressure?
Great info and right on point for the new season. 👍🏼😎👍🏼
Haha, that’s great mate. I haven’t TBH but I’ve heard that you can do that or use a sponge. I guess I’m just more comfortable controlling the line through my fingers rather than relying on something else.
Bravo
Hi Matt, I believe you are making a little miscalculation here. One turn with the reelhandle is 1m. That is probably with a fully loaded spool. The diameter of an empty spool is far less than that of a full spool of coarse. That means that one turn of the handle is far less than a meter.
Correct me if I’m wrong 😉.
Cheers Louis
Hi Louis, I understand your observation but spool diameter is not relevant here, it’s about the distance travelled by the rotor of the bail arm, which is fixed 😊
Of coarse the distance of the rotor is fixed Matt. But that is not relevant here. Let’s presume one turn of the handle equals 5 turns of the rotor. Each turn of the rotor will put one coil of line onto the spool. One turn of the handle is 5 coils on the spool. In case of an empty spool the coils will be much smaller than the coils of a fully loaded spool. You can easily measure it.
Hi, once again a very informative video, thank you for that.👌👍
And I would like to ask, why when rewinding the mono back on your spool you are positioned the spool upright and not lying down like before?
I'll definitely try that.
Thanks mate 👍 It has to be done differently because of the way in which bulk spools are loaded as opposed to how a fixed spool reel works. If you draw the line off a fixed spool with the spool rotating, as you would do if you pulled the line through a bait runner or a slack clutch, every turn of the spool is another twist in the line. For more information on that, watch this: ruclips.net/video/pf1m8FJIP6k/видео.htmlsi=B7FuCFE2Y-6-L84N
Thanks that helps loads, with the Nash bullet is that your go to line, why !
Thanks
Well, for me, it ticks a lot of boxes without having any big downsides. It casts well, has good knot strength and excellent abrasion resistance. The last few yards can go a bit curly after a few sessions if you aren't fishing with a leader, I cut that off and get back to a nice straight bit. That's being phased out now and this year I’ll be switching over to the Nash Armourline. I have a spool of the 25lbs (0.45) version and I have to say it looks great. Soft, supple and the abrasion resistance is the highest I’ve ever tested.
Hi matt I've did my reels the way you do it finished perfect but I'm getting line twist when I've done them in the past I always seem to get line twist what I'm I doing wrong I'm pulling my hair out 😢
If you’ve followed the method, it should be fine. Some anglers use a bait boat with the bail arm closed and that creates twist, if you’re playing them off the clutch, that adds twist. Some reels are more prone to twist than others. I've done a video on line twist: ruclips.net/video/pf1m8FJIP6k/видео.html
Hi Matthew.
My question to you is this, when you are filling a big pit reels with line these days a lot of them have the what they call SLOW OSALATION which helps with good line lay.
I have bought 2 Shimano 10000 bait runners for my partner because he has just started fishing and finds them easer to use than front drag reels.
What i would like to know please, is there a way to put line on to achieve a good line lay?
I use a plastic cereal container to put my line in when redoing my spools.
Hi Ray, yes a plastic cereal box that holds the spool upright is a good option for sure. To get a good line lay, fill the container with enough water so that it comes halfway up the spool and then spool it on under tension by holding the line between your fingers while winding. There is a bit of a technique for doing this and we will be covering this in more detail in another spooling tips video soon. Best of luck, Cheers, Matt.
@@matthewcollinsangler Thank you Matt.
Hi Matt, I’d be interested to know if you were to put the entire amount of bullet around wrapping sticks, how close it actually is to 300m. I can’t quite get my head around the 100cm estimate as ‘one turn’ of the handle is going to retrieve significantly less line toward the bottom of the spool than it will when the spool is full. I wondered if the 100cm was an ‘average’ estimate of retrieval per crank. I haven’t used the handle turn counting method before and all my spools are loaded so can’t test it myself!
The bailarm turns the exact same amount with every handleturn. No matter how full the spool is. So it is always 100cm.
Hi mate, sure you can do that but it’s not something I worry about. I know that this method works and that I use most of the line on the bulk spool but I have enough left over to tie plenty of rigs (I’ve never counted the amount that remains).
@@Sixx2099No.
If you have an emptier spool,you are winding on a smaller circumference with each turn.
This method is NOT accurate,if you want to estimate the distance you are fishing to,for example.
Take a smaller fishing reel,and cast out.
You will notice that at first ,the reel gathers much less line than when the spool will be closer to full.
The most precise method available for the average angler is measuring sticks ,and not even that,because of different line elongations,different lead weights...
It s not that simple ,and in feeder fishing,for example,you need to be in the EXACT same place everytime,and it s difficult to achieve with monofilament.
@@andreipetrescu603 Not gonna read your wall of text but thought about it again and must admit you are right. The retrieval does change with the spool beeing full.
@@Sixx2099 It is a wall of text because i tried to give you an insight on a fishing style,in which the rig placement needs to be everytime in a 50 centimetres circle.
I assumed you would be curious when accuracy counts...
Cheers, mate!
Lens quality on this one is mesmerizing. Can you name camera and lens?
We mostly use an iphone 14 Pro Max with Rode video mic go II but we also shoot with an Olympus EM1 and Zuiko fixed objective lens 25mm and 45mm.
As long as its mono with a stated diameter i use a line calc app....and works! No good with some braid with fantasy diameters.
Yes, absolutely, I use the line calc app as well, especially when I haven't got a spare spool, it's very accurate.
Never used big pit reels.... What's the benefits if you're only using up to 250m of the line you want?
Big pit reels have large diameter spools and are better for casting, they also have a much higher drag force which is useful for very large fish.
@@matthewcollinsangler Thanks Matt 👍 appreciate the reply.
Hmmm...dont spool the reel with the line coming off sideways as it twists,so you unwind as like someone holds the line on a pencil,but then on respooling you put the reel spool in the orientation you say not to.
Hi mate, I think we’ve got our wires crossed. Whether the spool is spinning vertically or flat is not the issue. Line twist only occurs if you pull the line off either face of the spool. As long as you are drawing the line off the spool and the spool is spinning to allow this, you won’t get any line twist. Sorry if it’s not very clear, it’s much easier to show this than writing it down! We covered this in an older video that might explain it better: ruclips.net/video/4Ub64QWEF9c/видео.htmlsi=iovkpYDoPxwGNpYC
Maybe reel manufacturers shouldn't make such deep spools each needing more than half a kilometre of line and backing? It's probably five times more than you'll ever need to fish with, but I suppose the manufacturers' aim here is to sell as much line as possible.
Some manufacturers supply spacer spools but they aren't standard across the industry. Some manufacturers sell shallow spools which is another way to solve the problem. The method I’ve outlined will help any angler to solve the problem simply no matter what reels he has and once you spooled up using this method once, you only ever need to strip back down to the backing.
all new line now come with a sticker every 250 Meters buddy loool under fill is not possible now
