In this video I show you the how to put line on your spinning reel. This is the easiest way to spool your reel if you're a beginner. Spinning rod and reel combos are one of the most common type of fishing combos for beginners. They are familiar and relatively easy to operate for most new anglers. When I bought my first rod and reel combo not too long ago, it had no line on it and I struggled for a few days on the fastest and easiest way for to put line on my spinning reel correctly. After trying a ton of different methods on how to spool a spinning reel, I settled on this one. It's super easy, great for beginners who want to learn how to spool their spinning reel on their own with no help. The way I secure my line works great and I've had no issues except for when I try to take my line off I actually have to cut the knot that I've tied. Share this video with any beginner trying to spool a spinning reel for the first time.

@@RamonOutdoorsthis is my 4th or 5th video and I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I have restarted a good 9-10 times and the line just won’t spool around the reel. It just spins and ultimately twists the line. It’s an older, cheap reel, but I definitely feel like the problem is with me and not the reel itself.

The first thing I noticed about this reel is its weight kzfaq.infoUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I wouldn't say it was uncomfortable but it was a little heavier than other similarly sized reels. However, that didn't deter my enjoyment of how smooth this reel is. I spooled it with 20lb. Tuf-Line XP and it's perfect for what I use it for. I have it paired with an 8'6" Medium/Fast Okuma SST Salmon/Steelhead rod. The combination is perfect for casting and even drifting. I used the reel all day and didn't experience any arm or hand fatigue except when fighting a few fish! The bail is solid and feels strong when engaging by reeling and manually closing the bail by hand. The large rubber handle grip is very comfortable. It's got a powerful drag, silky smooth reeling, and feels very comfortable in the hands. I recommend it!

I'm thinking of using Gorilla Glue tape on the sections to hold the pole together..

If you have a spare reel or the spool that had the mono on it you can take it off that way without ruining your line. Just tie to the spool and wind it up that way and then respool it. Kind of a pain to do, but if you don't want to waste the mono then this is how you can save it.

Did you have a lure tied on? It’s normal for some line to come off if there is nothing weighing it down or if there is no tension on the line. It still has memory from the spool and will naturally want to come off. If you notice in my video I keep the line tight until I hook it on the hook keeper.

@RamonOutdoors 10 ай бұрын

Not a dumb question! Mono backing is basically filler line. If you're going to use braid it's always good to use either electrical tape on the reel or a little bit of monofilament line so that the braid doesn't slip.

@rolandoalbanes1443 Жыл бұрын

If I didn’t add enough line could I just tie the rest on and reel?

@RamonOutdoors Жыл бұрын

So it depends on what you mean by "didn't add enough line." If you only filled up half or more of the spool, you can just fish it like that until you have a quarter of the spool left. If you have a quarter or less of the spool filled then yes you can just use that as backing. I do this for my ultralight reels. I will spool on some 4lb test first and then use a joining knot to put on my 2lb test line. Basically if you filled up half or more, just fish it. Your casting distance might be shorter, but it wont be terrible. If you filled up a quarter or less tie on more line. Hope this helps!

@ClawHeHeNum Жыл бұрын

Now the line keeps going under the reel what do I do then

@RamonOutdoors Жыл бұрын

Couple things you can do. 1. Run your line under hot water with it on your spool. I recommend putting tape on your line so it doesn't come off the reel and then taking the spool off your reel. Turn on the hot water in your sink and run it under that for 20-30 seconds. Warm water is fine, it doesn't have to be scolding hot. Make sure you hold on to the line while you do this because the tape will come off. 2. You can tie your line to a fence post or something sturdy and move back as far as you can and stretch your line out. This will make your line straighten out with a few tight pulls. 3. Take the line off and respool with the line coming off the line spool counter clockwise when you're putting it on your reel. This makes it so when you open your bail your line wants to go up over your reel and not under. I know not ideal to take all the line off you just put on, but if option 1 and 2 don't work this is your next step if you want to fix the issue. If this is happening when you open your bail or when you cast, basically what is happening is your line has memory from the spool and it's making it bounce down the reel instead of up the reel. If you don't want do do any of the options above you fish without fixing it because eventually it will fix itself because the line will get new memory to the size of your reel. You will just need to manage your line so that you can fix properly. Hopefully this helped!

? Every time to make the line come off counter clockwise the line just twists and nots up and have to throw away like 50 yards of line each time?

Twist and knots up during your cast?

@JayyFishingFL Жыл бұрын

i’m having the same problem, i get the reel fully spooled and then when i tie my hook on and try to cast the hook just sits at the top of the pole and the line just comes off the reel not as it normally should it acts as if it’s coming of the spool the line came off of

i would assume it’s a memory issue with the line , should i try the warm water trick ?

@@JayyFishingFL How light is your hook? If you don't have enough weight on the end of your line it will not go anywhere and cause your line to go all crazy.

You just earned a subscriber! This is very helpful! This is a video where it is not as time consuming, this took me 10 minutes at max! I got a new Southbend Proton 6'6, and its great for Bass (Largie, Smallie etc.) because my old Zebco spin cast reel broke completely. I got so frustrated putting line on it, I don't know if you have one of these videos for a spin cast reel, but if I ever get my hands on another one, I'll know whos channel to go to. Thanks for this awesome video!

I don't really follow, and understand the mono, and fluoro. @ 4:32 you start to real. i will try again. had problems with it coming off real if i eased up on tension. . then i had to start over. I held the line for tension past first guide. Then the line got twisted.. then it released from real. Distaster. I had to keep starting over. I seen you held tension before guide, and not after. That is what i did. So i will try again. That may make all the difference in the world.

@RamonOutdoors 8 ай бұрын

So mono and fluoro are two different kinds of line. Monofilament = Mono, is stretchy. Fluorocarbon = Fluoro, is not stretchy and almost invisible in the water. When it comes to keeping tension, you always want to keep tension on your line whether its manual tension with you holding it or with the weight of your lure. Without tension it will spring back and try to take the original shape. Basically, until you tie on a lure keep the tension tight as possible. Hope this helps!
