Extreme high line recovery reel.

[RonPaulFan]

I tried the reel today at Sandy Pond. I like the fast retrieve rate. I spooled on cheap Walmart $1.74 line in 12 pound test because I was wondering about a different lip shape of the spool and wanted to see how much I could over spool before it causes reliability problems of pulling off extra loops because I'd rather waste cheap line to find out before spooling expensive line. I did have to take off 50 yards and perhaps will need to take off a little more, but a tiny planter rainbow trout interfered by biting my lure (tiny Lucky Craft) on my second cast with it just before dark.

I reeled off the spool laying flat to fill it and got the right direction, but the line spool is much bigger than the reel spool and that creates some twist, so probably I should use the machine when I put on the good line.
