[QUOTE="Bubba, post: 49818, member: 216"] Another trick I like to do when spooling on new mono on a spinning reel.... Fill the spool to where you want it, then tie a swivel onto the end of your line. Go outside and snap that swivel onto something(phone pole, bumper of your truck, etc) then start backing up while letting line out......I like to back up about as far as possible, but at least a good full casts length. Close the bail and pull the line taut and keep pulling....your trying to "stretch" the line to almost "break it in". I think this helps with that new line coiling off your spool and twisting when you cast. It may not prevent it completely, but I think it really helps(at least it does for me). [/QUOTE]
