Can I unwind my entire spool and re-spool with the same line?

Hi Guys!

 

I just spooled by new Daiwa Fuego LT Spinning Reel 3000D-C with braided line but the line is very uneven (heavier at the top of the spool). After doing some research, I learned that I have to add another washer to my reel to raise the spool heigh and avoid the line clumping at the top.

 

Did I just waste all that braided line?! Or can I somehow unwind the entire spool and use that same line to re-spool it the correct way? Do I have to worry about line twists? It's braided line so I'm hoping this is okay.

 

Thanks!!!

Just go tie it to something and walk it off.  Fix the spool and put it back on.  In a couple of years take it off, switch ends and put it back on.

You can let it out behind a boat also, a good way to get tangles out as well.

You might be able to string the line on an unused reel … Fix the washer problem and re-string it onto the original reel....

 

Just a suggestion...  I have seen something like this done before when someone forgot to bring line for an unspooled reel.

 

Tight lines!
