Braid Issues

Featured Replies

Have you tried lighting it on fire? :P

I keed, I keed! You could try something small enough to try and work some slack under the parts that are digging in, like a pencil tip. That and a whole lot of patience might get it done. 

Rub your finger nail across the spool to loosen the top layer of line. Unless there is a backlash along with the line digging in, that should allow you to pull it out though you may need to do it multiple times.  I'm also assuming you meant 30lb. although the only way I could see it digging in would be if you had been pulling hard after getting hung-up on a snag.  Most current reels lay the line on the spool in a pattern that discourages braid from digging in.

If it is just dug in then you should be able to pull it free.  Are you sure you don't have a backlash?
