Questions & Answers
No, unlike the Piscifun spooler, it is not a line winder that spins in a circular motion. To avoid line twists on your spinning reel, you'll need to flip your roll line on the spooler every 20 to 30 cranks of your reel. There is no need to flip the spool for casting or conventional reels, and the rolled line unspools from the top as you wind it on the baitcaster reel.
The vice part opens to a maximum of 2 3/8 (6 cm) when fully extended. br>br>I haven't tried it with a fly line spool, but a typical 1/4 spool is the largest width spool it can barely hold. And by barely, I mean that anything narrower than that will suffice.
Metal pressure applicators are used in the A options, while plastic (supposed to be quieter) is used in the B options. The more expensive options include a line removal tool (same metal rod as tension applicators, but one end can be connected to a drill).
You won't be able to fine-tune the tension, but it can handle anything from free spooling to well over 8 pounds of force.

The materials used in the construction of this spooler are of excellent quality. It does what it's supposed to do, but the description says "spool capacity 3 1/2" wide. " The 1000 yard spools are 4" wide, and I'm so pleased with the product that I've set it up exactly as shown in the pictures. With a 4" spool, you don't really need a right-hand spring. On the left side, the keeper must be kept all the way to the end, or the spring will be too tight. I'm thinking about cutting the spring in half, but it's fine as is; this product is far superior to the suction cup models on the market.
My order was placed on April 10th, and it arrived ONE DAY LATER! I replaced the line on eight casting and spinning reels. If you forget to use a suction cup to hold the spoolers in place, they will come loose. This one uses a clamp, and I used a folding table leaf as my base. The spooler is screwed into the clamp and has a nut that needs to be tightened with a 9/16 wrench. Everything worked fine, though I discovered that tightening the line spool a little tighter helped avoid line overruns when using mono or fluoro. Braided line is a piece of cake to work with. For those who aren't aware, here are a few hints: When adding line to a casting reel, the line should go over the top of the spool, whereas with spinning reels, the line should go off the bottom. When respooling, this reduces line twist. Boaters should always throw new line into the water with no lures attached. br>Before reeling in the line, shore anglers can add a heavy nut and run it on dry land. When using spinning reels, I learned many years ago from a pro angler not to close the bail with the reel handle because it adds a bit of twist to the line. Instead, close the bail by hand. br>In conclusion, this is a handy tool at a low price that eliminates the need for a buddy to hold the spool and a pencil.
It accomplishes the task at hand. It takes up very little space, is easy to set up, and takes just as little time to break down. I needed it quickly because the light was fading as the sun set. After unwrapping both this spooler and new line on a new reel, I was able to spool a reel in under five minutes.
I was very pleased with the spooler's quality and price. Both the long and short versions were purchased. There is no plastic in any of these systems. Make use of it for its intended purpose. If you buy the long version, you'll end up with a spool that's too big for the bar. The measurements and descriptions provide precise data. I got everything I needed to finish the job for the price I paid. Definitely purchase it; it is far superior to using a pencil.
squeezing The difference is in the suction. I ordered one of Amazon's many clamp models, but it refused to suction to the counter or even a glass table. So I gave it back. I chose this one, despite its higher price, because it has a fail-proof clamp system. It functions admirably. I've reloaded seven reels so far, with four more to go, and it works with any size line spool, any tension, and it never comes loose. br>Congratulations on your accomplishments. Don't waste your time with anyone who claims it binds by suction; it won't.
5" isn't going to cut it. The bracket will be too small to hold them while also accommodating all of the spool bracket's hardware. I like how the bracket is attached to the wall. Other suction-based devices can only be used on non-porous surfaces. This unit has a wide mouth for attaching to large edges and can be attached firmly. To avoid line twist, the spool bracket can be rotated to fit baitcast and spinning reels.
I've used several of these types of line spoolers, and this clamp-on model is by far the best. I've tried the ones that look like a section of a fishing pole with a flimsy spool attachment that always goes cockeyed as soon as you try to wind line off the spool, and I've had the ones with a suction cup attachment that won't stay on any surface long enough to transfer line off a spool. This one firmly grips a surface and performs admirably.
A low-cost and easy-to-use re-use tool. spooling your fishing reels with the right amount of line tension The product is both lightweight and durable. To clamp the unit in place, all you need is a solid surface (table, bench, railing, truck bed, etc. ). I highly recommend it because it comes in a cloth bag for easy transportation. It is expected to last a long time.
