Great review Dave! Thanks for putting this together, it deserves way more views! I used this vid as a tutorial for putting on some new braided line for a trip to the Rogue River this weekend. Cheers from SF!
That all depends on line size. I have a 20lbs test spool that fits but it’s 330yrds and a 8lbs test spool that fit and it’s 660 yards. I think if it’s more than 2” wide spool it won’t fit.
I bought one of these about a year and a half ago and it was a complete waste of time and money, in my opinion. It doesn't hold a spool securely and doesn't spin freely enough. Maybe mine got past quality control. I ended up making my own portable line spooling station.
I have the old Berkeley line spooler / de-spooler set which works fairly well - for monofilament. Does this spooler work well with braid? Any special considerations?
I’ve tried everything possible to get my spools to spin while using this product but they won’t. It spins freely when I turn it with my hands but won’t spin when I real in the line?
