Tom is helping me load up a couple of spools of new line.
For the Mitchell reel, we have two spools: One aluminium that is loaded with 150m 0.18mm 12.50Kg Xtress fluo braided line. The other is a graphite spool that is loaded with 200m 0.20mm 2.90Kg Fluo nylon line. Obviously the braided line is for the bigger predator fish and the nylon is for the trout.
To prevent twisting the line, always wind in the direction shown above with the line coming off the line spool and onto the reel spool in the same direction. Keep a constant tension when winding to prevent snagging.
The result is a couple of dedicated spools for the reel (above). The pike braid on the aluminium spool is on the left and the trout nylon on the graphite spool is on the right.
