Hi there..tips from Pauly pro.Use backing incase you want to use just half a spool of 150yards.If you don't need alot of line,my buddy adds tape to the spool to fill it up,and then adds his line.I lay the spool on the ground and use a rag to hold the line,must be tight,real tight!.Don't over fill the spool,you may find out why,the hard way.I flip the spool over if I see it twisting,even so I flip the spool around a few times while adding line to the reel.
I use cheap rods and never had a problem with my line guides?Whatever you do,don't buy the 5or8lb powerpro,it will twist bad!.10is fine,I use it and 15,and 4in fireline,used to use 20,but its an overkill.
Make sure the line goes on evenly,if not you can add or remove a washer at the shaft ,you can see the washer,or "spacer" after removing the spool on your reel,or if its uneven,stop about halfway and add line by hand to the uneven areas,then finish spooling it as you were.Also,on some reels the line will get caught in the groove for the line roller.I usually solve this issue by taking off the roller,and removing the spacer,this will close the gap and the roller will still spins fine without the spacer.I love braid,as a teen I went all the way up to 17 mono just for bass fishing.Then the original spider wire came out,and I was hooked for life.Nowadays I use powerpro,10 and 15,suffix in 6and17,and 4 in fireline.P.S.I caught my Pacu with the 17 suffix,my line was about to burst with those teeth,OMG!
P.S.I made my first fishing video using my light action rod with 4lb fireline.I used my berkley cherrywood 4to 6 enjoy [url "http://youtu.be/3wtpiMGlX3k"]http://youtu.be/3wtpiMGlX3k[/url] we started recording once we knew what it was
