Every expert angler knows that the condition of his fishing line on a Spincast reel is very important. A fishing line works perfectly if it stays good. However, because of its degrading nature, its work becomes problematic.
Generally, light exposure is the main reason for a fishing line’s degradation. It hampers the line quality and damages the line gradually. So, as an angler, you must conserve the fishing line in a cold place.
How do you remove the old line from your Spincast reel?
If the amount of lines on your spinning reel is low, you can easily remove it by hand. Removing a large amount of fishing line takes a long time. So, there is a simple way to remove the line from the Spincasting reel quickly.
Necessary elements:
- A drilling machine
- A pencil
- The spincast reel
Now, follow the following steps to remove the old line from your spincast reel.
Tie the fishing line onto your pencil:
The pencil will quickly draw the fishing line in a few moments. So, first, you must tie the line strictly with a pencil.
Attach the pencil to the drill machine:
Attach the pencil with the fishing line to your drill machine. You can easily insert the pencil into the chuck of the drill machine because it is as straight as a drill bit.
Slowly start the machine:
After attaching the pencil, you will run the drill; thus, the pencil will automatically start moving around. When you see that all the reel has gone to the pencil, you will stop the drill and remove the pencil from the machine.

When fishing in dense vegetation, you must use a braided fishing line. You have to throw the fishing line through lily pads, hydrilla, water hyacinths, and cattails. So, the line should be stiff to cut through the stems of the plants, as a braided line is.

After choosing a new line, reel it into the fishing reel. Do not make it too tight, as it increases the possibility of tearing the line. The too-loose line is also problematic because it will be hard to spool. So, attach the line to a perfect position. You can wear gloves to keep your hands safe from the touch of the fishing line.
