    When I cast with my bait caster the line stops mid cast and then when I look into the real the line is under a loop in my baitcaster and most of the time I can’t get it out and I don’t know why it happens anyone know how to prevent it because I think it might be something wrong with my reel but I want to make sure before I get a new reel.

    Thanks in advance for the help, and my apologies for being such a beginner. I have started seriously fishing for the first time this year and purchased a spinning reel as I have always had that style. My buddy got his license, and needed a rod. He said he wanted a close faced spincast style reel. I purchased him a Zebco, and took him out to a open pond. We spent about an hour and a half fishing, and TWICE the line twist around the bolt that keeps the top of the reel, not the cover, on. The cover had to be removed, then the metal inside cover had to be unscrewed. The line had to be untwisted from around the bolt in middle of the reel, or cut. Brand new reel, happened twice. Looking for some guidance on why this happened and how to avoid it. PS lucky **** caught 2 fish despite the issues. Lol David

    My wife uses a spinning reel when she fishes. It's an old Shimano reel that is probably a bit big for bass fishing. In the past we constantly had line twist issues with mono so we switched to braid. Problem solved! Now however we have a new problem. Often the braid gets small kinks in it on the reel. They are not in the line that has been cast out but deeper in the spool. When she casts often the line being cast get caught on the kinks of the line deeper in the spool and makes her cast stop mid air. I have tried pulling out most of the line and rewinding it tightly which seems to help for awhile. Anyone know how to avoid these kinks developing? We had been using 30 pound braid but we switched to 50 which improved the issue somewhat.
