My braid keeps getting twisted

Featured Replies

My braid that I use on a spinning rod for dropshot is recently getting twisted alot and i cant get it really straight, is there a reason why it happens? Its not affecting anything but it looks kinda wierd

This pretty common, due to the bait causing your line to twist when retrieving.  I use swivel mounted hooks (VMC Spinshot or Gamakatsu), which I think helps.  When you're done for the day, cut off the hook and tie a light cylinder weight on.  Let out a long cast and a bit worth of line and drag it behind the boat at low speed for a 5-10 min.  It will help remove some of the twist.
