Esox pro Posted August 21, 2020 Posted August 21, 2020 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 Quote
Hewhospeaksmuchbull Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 Esox, Glen the Admin of this site has really put out some outstanding instructional videos. If one where to follow these and only these video's they would be far better of then getting the opinion of thousands. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/rods-reels-videos 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. 1 Quote
Super User NHBull Posted August 22, 2020 Super User Posted August 22, 2020 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. Quote

Do you have an instant healing thing like a lazurus pit and immunity to pain or just deal with the burns Quote
