[black][size 3]Winding the reel against the drag will cause problems, and in my mind is misuse of the reel. (my kids did it when they were young)[/size][/black]
[size 3]I think that either you should not wind against the drag, or the drag should be set tighter[/size]

[size 3]When I cast a spinning reel, I always raise the rod as I'm closing (turning the handle) the bail, which will eliminate the little loop that can appear on the spool.[/size]

[size 3]I had not thought of the ice fishing application, there you would have to watch what you're doing.[/size]

[size 3]Trolling with a spinning reel, in my opinion, is a misapplication of equipment. Almost everything that you troll with will eventually give you a good line twist. Casting or trolling reels work much better.[/size]

[size 3]Just my personal opinion, from my own experiences. [/size]
