Loading line onto your reel

It is terribly important to load your mainline onto your reel correctly. If this isn't done properly, you will find yourselves fighting against line twists and tangles. Underloaded reels also effects your casting distance. All lines now come on spools with a hole predrilled in the middle. Loading your reel now becomes a doddle because you can allow the spool of line to revolve on a pencil whilst you're loading line onto your reel. However, it's best to get a mate to help out. ALWAYS apply light pressure/resistance on the spool, as loading slack line will certainly mean in tangles.
