Before i spool up my reel with the new nanofil after getting a replacement i was wondering if i needed to add tension to spool even with line spooler to prevent it from digging into itself 

This is how i spool

 

This method works and you wont get tangles unless line has kink in which case that is going to cause it to form a loop and tangles but was wondering what you guys thought if that was enough tension to prevent it from digging inti itself or if I should apply additional tension 

Esox,

I spent countless hours watching these video's and reading the articles of BR. Many of them over and over. I am a much better fisherman for doing so.

 

As to your question, I create tension with my thumb and index finger. When it starts burning then I have it tight enough.

Spool label up.

After I use it the first time, I cut off the terminal tackle and let 100 yards off behind the boat and troll 1/2 a mile.  Any twist is gone.  I do it a couple times a year.

Do you have an instant healing thing like a lazurus pit and immunity to pain 

or just deal with the burns
