How I store monofilament line
I store my either in the package spool or the reel, always in a cool, dark, dry place. I avoid storing my line where it can be exposed to sunlight.
When spooling monofilament line onto a reel, ensure the line is as tight as possible. This will help prevent the line from digging into the rest of the spool you have a big fish on and it is fighting hard.
I prefer to keep my reels full of line. When a reel is low on line, it does not cast or retrieve as well as a full reel. Be careful not to overfill the reel.
I also recommend wetting your line before fishing. If you are in a boat, you might want to let out 50 or so yards of line while moving slowly, then reel it in as tightly as you can.
If you are fishing from the bank, cast a weight gently into the water a few and reel the line back in as tightly as possible.
Now let’s go catch some Salmon, or Sturgeon.
