We're thinking about putting together an reel maintenance workshop over the winter months and one thing that we're thinking about offering an opportunity to re-spool your reels. If interested, let know what type and # test line that you primarily use.

Sounds good to me . I mostly use Braid @ 20#. Looking forward to the up coming programs.

I use 20 lb braid, primarily because I only have two medium rods. The way I figure, 20 lb braid is a good all around line to use so that I'm not constantly changing out my line to match what I'm fishing for.

Anybody know how much Gander or A.K McClallums charges to re-line a reel per foot? No doubt that they have different prices for mono and braid. Just wondering if anyone has a tackle shop spool their reel and how much it cost.

I also like fluorescent yellow/green in 17-20# for trolling. Don't like to troll with braid. Gander and West Marine don't charge to re-spool. They just make you buy the line first.

Line Prefeence - Reel Maint./Repair
Mike Davis Sun Nov 21, 2010 3:47 pm
I'm pretty unsophisticated when it comes to line preference...as I am with most 'technical' aspects of fishing. I mostly go with whatever happens to be on the reel when I get it and adjust the drag so it lets line out before it breaks.
Unsophisticated?? Read: Simplistic and/or Moronic...reflecting on the old adage: Ignorance is Bliss. But, I do catch one now & then and I enjoy learning all kinds of new stuff.
Having acquired several reels at a yard sale, including spinning & bait casting reels, all of which have been unused for several years and have old, sometimes ragged, line on them, I'd be happy to bring some to a reel maint./repair class and accept any suggestions on what kinds of line would be best for them.
If a reel maint./repair class were to be as well planned & presented as the rod making class, I'd REALLY like to participate.
