It's pretty simple. All you gotta do is thread the fishing line of choice through the highest eye and go all the way down to the reel. Tie a knot around the reel and start reeling it in. You might want to hold it a little tight right above the reel. This helps it keep from birdnesting, or coming off the reel and tangling up really bad. Hope this helps!

You remove the cover, which generally just unscrews like a jar lid. Then tread the line through the hole in the middle of the cover. Then use a knot to tie it to the spool shaft. An Arbor Knot is a good knot to use. Go to www.animatedknots.com click on fishing then click on "Arbor Knot" for an animated demo of how to tie it.

When spooling a reel for fly fishing, one needs two types of lines: backing and a fly line. The first type of line that is attached to the reel is called "backing". Backing is extra line that is spooled upon the reel and connected to the fly line. Backing is, literally, your backup. The backing is your reserve line that allows one to land larger, difficult fish. It is braided line that comes in various diameters and strengths depending on your target species. In order to attach backing to your reel, one can use a variety of knots. The most popular knot is called the arbor knot. One call also use a simple double overhand knot or even a double clinch knot.

Attached to the backing will be your fly line. Fly lines are the main mechanism in fly fishing as they cast the fly to its intended target. Attaching your fly line to the backing is a very important part of the set up process. The knot will need to be tied correctly or you may lose your entire line. To attach the fly line to backing it is best to perform an Albright knot. This is an easy and effective knot to tie. For extra durability, the knot can be coated with super glue. If you plan on changing fly lines in and out of your reel to target other species, one can create perfection loops at the end of the backing and the fly line so lines can easily be swapped out.

How do you restring a fishing reel?

There are two main ways of putting line onto a reel.When filling a multiplier reel it is important that the spool is filled with no line twist.When filling a fixed spool reel it is important that the line goes onto the reel the direction it leaves the edge of the spool.Very modern fixed spool reels have a twist reducing mechanism in the roller.However,it is important that the line is taken off the lip of the spool so that it rotates in the same direction as the rotor.Which everway reel is being used make sure the line that is being put on your reel is under tension. TIP Tie your line to reel , place line through a heavy book and reel the line true to your reel the book will but the line under tension and stop nests in the line.


How do you replace the line on your closed face fishing reel?

First, remove the reel cover. Remove old line carefully, when you find the end, it should come off easily. Once the old line is removed, run the new through the cover, then tie the new line on the spool, and remember to remove the tag end as close as possible to the spool. Replace the cover, then reel the new line on the reel.

What type of fishing reel was made first and how did it work?

The first fishing reel that was ever made was simply a wooden spool that usually held thread. It was attached by a basic system to a wooden pole and strung through some brass pieces of wire (eyelets) and then to the hook and cork bobber. It worked simply by thumbing the spool when a fish took the line and then twisting it (so as to retrieve your line) after the fish tired out.
