I have an ultralight rod and reel combo that i love to use but the line, (no matter how new it is), always gets twisted so bad. It looks like line that has been left on the spool for years. The reel is a Quantum Micro, which i ususally string up with 4 or 6 lb test. I have been using the cheaper Trilene XT line. Maybe thats my problem.
I have heard many ways to fill the spool,
1. i have used the spool holder that mounts on the rod
2. throw the spool in the water and reel it in
3. i know the string has to go on the reel spool in the same direction it comes off the line spool.
I don't fill the spool all the way either, but it still comes off reel and tangles into a knot.
What kind of line out there would be best to use to get away from this problem? Or are there other types of line better suited to the spinning reel?
