I am very glad you covered this topic. It's one of those things that a lot of people likely don't think about yet the results of improper spooling can have you seriously frustrated with your reel. Spinning reels inherently already produce twist so following your tutorial is a must. Excellent job indeed, I can't think of even a minor detail that you forgot to cover.
I seen it the spool after filling dropped into hot water for a minute and took it out. It transformed the monofilament perfectly to work without twisting
@@xavierdoppler9997 I going to assume he was referring to a spinning reel, so perhaps putting a rubber band or tape around your new line on the spinning reel, then taking off the spool then drop in hot water. That makes sense, but not sure what kinda hot; hottest tap water (101 to 104 degrees) or heating hotter in microwave, but certainly not boiling)! I'm guessing for 4-5 minutes?
I have been watching all the old videos with the most views up till now for how to string a spinning reel properly. This is the stopping point for me since you nailed it with this one,and have another sub to boot. Looking forward to the new videos,and browsing around your library.
Back in my surf casting days, this is how you spooled line onto a spinning reel: 1. Remove the spool from the reel 2. Find a bolt that will fit through the spool 3. Secure bolt with a couple of washers and a nut. 4. Chuck up spool in an electric drill. 5. Put some type of rod through hole in factory spool of line 6. Have someone hold the factory spool horizontal 7. Tie line to reel spool 8. Wear a glove to put tension on the line 9. Operate drill to take line onto reel spool in the same direction that it’s coming off factory spool. 10. Fill to appropriate level. 11. Remove bolt, reattach spool to reel. Save bolt assembly for next time.
Wow.. So direct and to the point! (so American!) Thank you... I have just spooled six spools, with the bulk spool rotating, thinking that this was the correct way! Guess what? First day out, bird's-nest central! An another evening "spooling" in front of You-Tube is in order!
Yes!! Finally someone who knows how to make a video! Thank you for actually explaining AND CLEARLY SHOWING IN THE VIDEO the counter-clockwise relationship between the spool of new line and the rotation of the reel. Makes perfect sense now, with no residual head-scratching and wondering, "Is this what he meant?" It's crystal clear to me now, and because you took the time to show the view from the bottom of the reel looking toward the spool of new line, including the direction the reel rotates, it's now set in my mind with no confusion and I'll never forget.
I hate installing line on my spinning reel because it's a hassle. I need to find a better way than leaving the spool on the ground and reeling up the new line, cause the line always grabs the notch on the edge of the new line spool and the spool flips over onto wrong side. So I was hoping your video was going to show me a good idea how to spool up new line quickly and easily. Oh well. But if you know a video plz share the channel and video name. Thx
Thanks Again Boss!!! Couldn't Never Figure That Out on my Spinning Reel!!! Thank You Again!!! Landed 6 Walleye Over 26" at Merritt State Lake with my PB @ 28" !!!
We had trouble with line rolling off our spin cast reel after spooling. The counter clockwise tip for less line twist is something we will try. Thanks!
Excellent explanation. I find KVD Line Conditioner works great. I saturate the spool and allow to dry 2X after putting on new line. I usually fill about half of my reel with mono to save money on expensive fc. When knot between fc and mono gets close to coming off spool, then its time to re-load.
Thanks for the information! 1st time I've heard about the counterclockwise loading. And it makes perfect sense now. Ive done all the other points since I can remember. Again, thanks!
I have an electric line spooler where I can mount the spinning reel spool in it and have zero twists on the spool. You don't want it that way because when you make a cast the line will twist 1 time for each loop that comes off the spool leaving you with a couple hundred twists between the spool and your lure. Then when you reel it back onto the spool those twists come back out...mostly. Every time you lift your lure out of the water to cast you loose a couple of those twists and if you get a line break you lose them all. In short order, the first hundred foot that comes off your spool ends up twisted on the spool anyway. I prefer to have my twists on the spool and not between the spool and my next PB. Tight lines!
One of the best fishing tips I’ve ever learned for twisty line is if you’re on moving water, let out all your line downstream and let it straighten. Without a lure of course. Amazing.
Nice.. I do that all of the time when not on the water. Hook it up to a barrel swivel... hook it to my car antennae and let out all of the line and reel it back in.
I bought one as well, and in my opinion it was a complete waste of money. I can't get it to hold a spool of line at all and it doesn't spin freely enough. Maybe mine skipped the quality control department.
The first thing I noticed about this reel is its weight ruclips.net/user/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I wouldn't say it was uncomfortable but it was a little heavier than other similarly sized reels. However, that didn't deter my enjoyment of how smooth this reel is. I spooled it with 20lb. Tuf-Line XP and it's perfect for what I use it for. I have it paired with an 8'6" Medium/Fast Okuma SST Salmon/Steelhead rod. The combination is perfect for casting and even drifting. I used the reel all day and didn't experience any arm or hand fatigue except when fighting a few fish! The bail is solid and feels strong when engaging by reeling and manually closing the bail by hand. The large rubber handle grip is very comfortable. It's got a powerful drag, silky smooth reeling, and feels very comfortable in the hands. I recommend it!
I had an adaptor made (nice to have a friend with a machine shop) for my dremel tool. I take the spool off and attach it to the dremel. I got the idea one day while I was taking old like off with my Berkley line remover. And, yes, I use reel magic. I don't know if it improves distance, but I do feel like it helps condition the line. YMMV.
I have had people mention to have the line come off the spool like you did at 2:00, the only problem is after about 10 meters or so the line always starts to wad up on me. I however have never had an issue with any line wad ups happen by just having it come off the spool as by spinning on a shaft. At least not after I stopped using old reals and went to spinning or bait casting. Though I always do what you mentioned in tip #2. So thats likely why I never have issues.
Very informative video. I just bought my first higher end rod and reel and wanted to make sure I was spooling it correctly. Seems like I’ve never had any issues before but I guess I just got lucky. Thanks for the info!
I go to the center of a bridge over a moving stream or river, let out your lines and let the current take it. When I get to the end I put it through the first eye and with moderate pressure reel the line with nothing attached at the end. It will naturally untwist in the river and untwist as you reel it in, plus getting the line wet helps a lot
Hi, yes and line conditioning spray. It's just help lubricant the line that helps with casting. It won't help braided lines. I've been fishing for 50+ years and it's proven it's usage! 👍🏻
Hi...new sub....good vid on loading line....yes, I do use a line conditioner....I spray it on all the reels that I am planning to use the next day as well as just before I leave for that day's fishing trip....to me, it does seem to help, especially on fluorocarbon line...Thanks again!
If you get line twist after trolling you can take your lure off and let out a bunch of line into the water and troll it bare for a 100 yards or so. You’ll be surprised how much drag you can still feel without a crank bait on it.
Not trying to start anything, but the title says how to spool a spinning reel, not how to attach line to reel. If you want to attach your line to your reel you can use an arbor knot, simple and easy knot to use, there are other knots but I use the arbor knot
Whe i get line twist from lure spinning or put on a new line, I let all the line out and drag it behind the boat and it "unskrews" the line. If you're exclusively a bank fisherman you can let all the line out and drag it around the house the length of the line.
A used braided line. Used mono for for my custom leaders and custom two hook, two and a half foot leaders for my nightcrawler harnesses. The mono is always higher poundage. Thoughts?
Use a 10 foot leader tied on either an FG knot. Leader strength below or above the main line really doesn’t make any difference as a whole. Your application determines your leader strength. Another idea. If you need an abrasion resistant leader. Just tie on a short section 6 to 8 inch section to the lighter 10 foot leader section. One more thing. When using a lure. Tie on a small snap and only a snap to keep from having to retie to change lures.
Great job. I've put the line in the box between my shoes and reeled in the line. Dumb. I've started taking the amount of line on one turn of reel and counted number turns. So i know how much line i put on. I've fished for 60÷ years and have so many bad habits. Thanks.
Line twist is an issue when putting it on the reel, but I think by far the biggest issue is line twist that develops over multiple casts. The lure doesn’t twist but every time the line is wound in, it puts twist in. And it’s in addition to the twist from the previous cast. Eventually it catches up and you get tangled unless there’s a release for some of the twist. At least that’s been my experience. The only way I’ve been able to fish spin cast is with braid and a flouro leader. I wish there was a better way but I haven’t found it yet.
Through experience I’ve had my issues spooling up a reel but I complete agree. On a spinning reel after some new line…it’s over time when I start to notice twist and tangles in the line. I fish a lot of soft plastics and in moving water so that doesn’t help. I have a nail in my fence connected to a swivel I will tie my line onto and walk out about 100yrds give or take and reel back in… it helps sometimes!!
Lew's looks like it could use a shim to fix the line lay .. I use braid to a leader now but when I was a lot younger I use to spool up new mono or Fluoro lock the line in the little tab remove the spool from the reel and put it in hot water for about a minute to lose the memory from the previous spool
I soak my cast net in a bucket with a dilution of eater and fabric softer and it takes the stiffness out of the mono material, so it makes sense if you soaked your fishing line in it it would eliminate line memory.
Now for people who fish with spincast reels, these reels will wind the line clockwise, so you need to make sure the line comes off the spool clockwise.
Hey so I bought some of the invizx a few days ago. Spooled it exactly how you showed and had to flip it about 3/4s the way to the end and it seemed great. Took it out today and and almost every cast is wanted to just keep jumping off my reel and I had more tangles than my entire last 15 years of fishing. Even tried the warm water trick before hand and I made sure I wasn’t over loaded. Ended up with such a bad tangle at one point I had to cut maybe 15-20 yards off and it still wouldn’t stop tangling and unspooling. Really bummed because I head great reviews of invizx but holy cow did it ruin my experience today.
@@damondmastin That is likely your issue. Anything over 10lb I use baitcasters. It makes sense why your line is wanting to billow off your spinning reel. Too much memory in that thicker line.
Gotcha! What size would be good for typical lake fishing for bass? I’ve been fishing for a long time with ultralight rods and fly rods for trout in rivers, but lake fishing for bass is all new to me.
I think my biggest issue with spooling spinning and baitcaster reels is over-spooling them. I'm a line capacity junkie and have yet learned to cut back with over filling the spool
I hear this to do but I don't and never get line twist I only use monofilament line. I hold the spool with one hand with two fingers one in each hole in each side and straight over the top and reel with the other hand keep the spool tite in your fingers not so tite you get the heat to burn your fingers. I do it the same way with all the kinds of reels like that. I've tried the other ways and no good luck for me so I just went back to what I know.
If you're wading in fairly fast water or in a yak, canoe, or boat, let your line out when you move...the moving water will take the twist out. Free line it out.
After I string a reel I hook it on my fence and walk back about 150 yds and stretch it. That takes the memory out. By the time I use up that much line the rest has had the memory reset.
I can't imagine the warm water not working? It makes perfect sense to me just like putting your mouthpiece in hot water and molding it to your teeth or heating up your PVC conduit and bending it. That said, I've never tried it lol
possibly, but the line is gonna get all tangled up unless you tie it to say a swivel that is tied off to something, straighten it out, then tie the other end to the spool and spool it on. If you just let it lay on the ground, the preexisting twists/memory are gonna just make a ball of line
There is one thing that i have seen before, once you spool your line on the reels spool, remove the spool and run hot water over the line for a while then run some lukewarm water over it to cool it down, it is said that it will help with removing line twist, i have done it a few times and have had no issues with birds nest or anything like that, anyone else know more on this?
I take my spool off the reel and put a shaft in it. I then stick it in a hand drill. With the drill I can pull it off the spool onto the reel spool exactly the same way. Zero chance of twist.
Copolymer line is basically a more advanced version of mono-filament line. However, it’s made from two types of nylon polymers, and mono line is made from one. The combination of two polymers pretty much gets rid of all of the quirks that mono-filament line has. It’s stronger, less likely to tangle, and way more resistant to abrasion.
Clean line cast better ,a small piece of leather hung by a old style spring clothes line pin in front of the largest eye after a long cast does the trick, sounds goofy but try it , fly fisherman know the deal about clean fly line 😊

@damondmastin I use 8lb personally but you have to pay attention to your drag often
I think my biggest issue with spooling spinning and baitcaster reels is over-spooling them. I'm a line capacity junkie and have yet learned to cut back with over filling the spool
100%
What line sizes can you recommend, most ppl use smaller line but does this work with say a 12 or even a 15lb mono/floro
I almost exclusively use 8lb Fluoro on my spinning rods
Does being left handed make a difference on tying to the spool?
Nope
If you have line twist, how do you get rid of it? Trail the line behind the boat with no lure attached?
I usually will just tie a swivel and do it in my yard
Got a spinning reel, go with braid and a 3 ft.mono leader no more line twist .
I hear this to do but I don't and never get line twist I only use monofilament line. I hold the spool with one hand with two fingers one in each hole in each side and straight over the top and reel with the other hand keep the spool tite in your fingers not so tite you get the heat to burn your fingers. I do it the same way with all the kinds of reels like that. I've tried the other ways and no good luck for me so I just went back to what I know.
If you're wading in fairly fast water or in a yak, canoe, or boat, let your line out when you move...the moving water will take the twist out. Free line it out.
I use line conditioner for my braid
After I string a reel I hook it on my fence and walk back about 150 yds and stretch it. That takes the memory out. By the time I use up that much line the rest has had the memory reset.
I used to run the line between the middle pages of a heavy phone book to create tension. How dated!
How about tie it it to the spinning reel and a bait caster reel would the same technique apply
Same logic would apply and the baitcaster is much easier.
I can't imagine the warm water not working? It makes perfect sense to me just like putting your mouthpiece in hot water and molding it to your teeth or heating up your PVC conduit and bending it. That said, I've never tried it lol
It’s works I try it
Thanks boss!
Ahhhhh, got it! But the real question is: Why doesn't my Zebco 33 get twisted lines ... ever !!! :O
Zebco magic
@@wendellfishing I guess so. If they were a little tougher I'd never worry. I don't fish tournaments or a whole lot so mine last a long time :)
Outstanding
Thanks boss
Why do I end up with twisted line between spool & 1st guide after spooling reel?
If you are still having issues after spooling like this.. could be cheap line with heavy memory
What I’m struggling with (I’m new to this) is that my spool isn’t actually putting the line in there, when I reel it in, it just keeps clicking
Tighten the drag.
I wonder how many other utubers have shown this same way to spool I spinning reel?
I've made the mistake before of not paying attention to this when spooling lol. It's a nightmare, constant birds nests and line twists.
Right on brother!
When spooling line open a heavy book or magazine and place line in it. Close book and spool line weight of book will take twist out of line.
Doubtful
Can you just pull out 100 yards cut it off and spool it. Would it not have any twist then?
possibly, but the line is gonna get all tangled up unless you tie it to say a swivel that is tied off to something, straighten it out, then tie the other end to the spool and spool it on. If you just let it lay on the ground, the preexisting twists/memory are gonna just make a ball of line
There is one thing that i have seen before, once you spool your line on the reels spool, remove the spool and run hot water over the line for a while then run some lukewarm water over it to cool it down, it is said that it will help with removing line twist, i have done it a few times and have had no issues with birds nest or anything like that, anyone else know more on this?
I've heard of it.. but never done it.. I usually just try to avoid anything hot near my line
Well shit! I’ve been doing that backwards for a few years!
:)
How to not get line twist: use braid to a leader
I take my spool off the reel and put a shaft in it. I then stick it in a hand drill. With the drill I can pull it off the spool onto the reel spool exactly the same way. Zero chance of twist.
I don't use hot water, but I do use water with fluoro. It's always just seemed to work better for me.
What's a "copolymers"?
Copolymer line is basically a more advanced version of mono-filament line. However, it’s made from two types of nylon polymers, and mono line is made from one. The combination of two polymers pretty much gets rid of all of the quirks that mono-filament line has. It’s stronger, less likely to tangle, and way more resistant to abrasion.
Doesn’t work
Line conditioner works. You just dont NEED it.
Clean line cast better ,a small piece of leather hung by a old style spring clothes line pin in front of the largest eye after a long cast does the trick, sounds goofy but try it , fly fisherman know the deal about clean fly line 😊
Its funny, out local fishing tackle/supplies store DOES NOT KNOW how to spool line properly on reels
Yikes!!!
Just tie line to a tree and take a walk. Let line most the way out, and then stretch lline. Or just go catch a big fish.
I use a cork
I did this and it still didn't do anything please help me
