Most manufacturers of fishing line, say there is a right way anda wrong way to fill up your reel. The right way will reduce line twist and coil, and the wrong way actually makes them woftse. To avoid line twist when spooling a spinn- ing reel, Du Pont recommends the following-- steps: ollowingsteps First, lay the supply spool flat, thread the line through the rod guides,and then attach it to the reel. Next, bold the rod tip three to four feet above the spool and put a moderate amount of tension on the line. Then make 15 to 20 turns on the reel handle and slacken the line. If you see the line twisting at this point, simply flip the spool over to correct the pro- blem. Why does flipping a spool of line eliminate coils when spooling up? Bill Dance, former BASS Angler of the Year' and member of the Du Pont "Strep" Pro Fishing Team . ex- plains: "When' nylon monofilament "is put onto supply spools at the factory it develps a `memory' and is inclined to coil the way it was spooled. When you fill your reel, all you have to do Is determine which way the manufacturer put the line on the spool and then just talteT off the opposite way," Dance also offers this practical advice for good spooling: "Once you've determined which way you're going to take the line off the supply spool, prop the. spool on its edge so it can turn freely as you. feed the line onto the reel. One trick I've learned is to stand up, wedge the supply spool between my feet and let it rotate slowly as I feed the line. When feeding line onto your reel, it's also important to put a moderate amount of ten- sion on the line as you turn the reel handle. If the line is wound too loosely on a spinning or bait casting reel, it can cause loops that tangle when cast. Another mistake is putting too much line on the reel. If too much line is put on, entire loops of line can flip off the reel on a cast. The excess line also can get jammed in the. rod guides. In general, it's a good idea never to fill your reel more than an eighth to a quarter of an inch from the lip -of the reel. At the same time, too little line on your reel also can cause problems. When a reel is lightly filled, more coils have to come off every time you cast. This creates friction that will damage the line and generally makes poor action on the reel. So, if you are one of those people who always seems to have trouble with excess twisting of your line, clip this column and store it away with your spare spool of line. The,next time you "freshen up' the line on your reel, give this method a try. You'll be surprised at how well it works. Recreation programs begin... from page 12 Jones or the Recreation Director.
