Hey Folks!  Seems there's some confusion on how to properly spool line onto a spinning reel; and even when you think you did it right, you still get twists and tangles! 

Here's the right way to spool a spinning reel, along with many tips to help prevent line management issues:

 

It's funny because as a saltwater guy, I'm still struggling with getting my casting down with a baitcaster. Never had an issue spooling a spinning reel after the first couple of times. Seems like we need to get the saltwater guys talking to the freshwater guys and we'd all be set.

 After initial spooling and routinely afterwards, All my Nylon line gets a generous blast of this.

Makes a world of difference.

YMMV (there it is again )

I never thought about that. Great insight!

A-Jay, I keep a bottle of that on my boat too.
