1.What does "winding against the drag" mean. Sounds like this would only occur when a fish is pullin out line while you're reelin in. If so, I don't wind against the drag, but still get birds-nests occasionally. What's up with that?
5 of the 6 Cabela's reviews are stellar.
2. I read Hansen's site, and he talks about holding the looped part of the line (that occurred on the initial retrieve) onto the notched spool until the next cast. But what if more than one loop has formed on that initial retrieve?
Every time I go out in the boat, I promise myself that on the way back in for the day, I'll go slow, and let free line out of my reels in order to rid them of line twist. Never do it...
