    Although it doesn't happen a lot these days, there is still a chance of it happening - your reel not spooling the line in an even stack. In this video, I show you how to address this issue.
    It's very easy to fix and although all the reel manufacturers need an official video for this, there aren't any for any brand - sadly. So this video explains how to fix the line lay issue on some spinning reels and how to fix it. There are shims sent out with the reel including instructions on how you put them on. The problem is, people tend to forget about this. I also talk about why you need to fix this line lay issue for spinning reels. The loose loops on top causes wind knots because the line will get on your spool loose, and the loops on the bottom of the stack will sometimes get pushed by the loops on top - causing a wind knot. Originally, I didn't really have an issue with the tapering line lay on this reel, but it might be me tightening the drag when I clean the reel with water - maybe. There are instructions in the box and the parts are also supplied for this - in the box - this is a very common problem and the manufacturers send the fix in the box, just in case. Anyway, I hope this video helps people - I know this isn't common these days, but it still happens, especially on lower end reels where the manufacturing process isn't as refined, but it still happens, as you can see with the example, the reel isn't exactly just "mid end".

    I think it's important to point out that many Daiwa spinning reels are meant, designed to have a reverse taper line lay. It's called ABS or ABS II. So if you have a Daiwa with that, don't shim your reel if it has a reverse taper - you're good to go!

      I am not too familiar with Daiwa tech, so this might be useful to daiwa users out there so thanks for your contribution, Anders!

    Any recommendations on how to fix line lay that is an hourglass shape? I have one reel were the line is thicker on both ends but thinner in the middle. I tried using the shims but it couldn’t fit it.

    • @TheFishingKit
      @TheFishingKit  Рік тому

      if the middle is the problem, then take all the shims off and check each of them, there might be one in there that is warped.

    Hey kit, how many shim or spacer you usually put to make the line perfectly distributed on the spool?

    • @TheFishingKit
      @TheFishingKit  Рік тому +2

      it depends on how bad the tapering is. In my case with the vanquish (and probably majority of the reels out there) I only needed one spacer, since the line lay isn't that bad.

      Try with one first....in most cases it fixes it. IF not, then put on another one. but start with one.

    Did you say that the solution is to REMOVE spacers? I thought you would have to ADD spacers so the spool is physically higher on the shaft and more line is wound closer to the bottom (evenly) on the spool. Thanks!

    • @TheFishingKit
      @TheFishingKit  Рік тому +1

      I said, if it tapers down you add a shim, if it tapers up (bunching up on the bottom of the spool) you need to take a shim out.

      ​​​@@jayfranco9969f you have other reels, see if you have shims in their box to use after some modification if needed. Or have a look at the shim in your reel (it should have say one or two) and make one on your own, it's a thin piece of plastic, not hi-tech.

      I have been filming with a phone, before this, it was a proper studio set up, which...I need to tidy up a bit Was testing a new mic with the phone so I could use to film as a back up outdoors, I still need to figure it out.
      Honestly, Fishing in general isn't a cheap hobby to start with - you can make it cheaper and there are alternatives - I mostly use mid end gear, just that most are JDM. There are lots of alternative from Asia for rods (which are quite good - like storm rods for slow jigging). This hobby can be as cheap or expensive as you want it to be.

      if you are croatian guy like me and if you want to try all methods, it is very expensive. Light spin rod, heavy spin rod, squid rod, shore jigging rod, inchiku rod, fast jigging rod, slow jigging rod, trolling rod, + small slow spin reel, big slow spin reel, small fast spin reel, big fast spin reel, + multiplicator jigging and trolling reels haha. PLUS, all those artificial lures which are lost forever in the sea, my god. Minnows, Jerkbaits, crankbaits, deep divers, stickbaits, twitchbaits, wtd, wtd poppers, poppers, big cup poppers, casting spoons, casting jigs, narrow slow jigs, wide slow jigs, narrow fast jigs, wide fast jigs, inchiku and kabura. AND ALL OF THEM, in minimally two sizes and two colors haha. Im not even mentioning, soft plastic and egi lures haha. In croatia we have a saying, actually its the ultimate fishermans wish and dream, it goes like this: "when i die, i hope that my wife doesnt sell my gear for the price i told her that i bought it for" haha

      That's a problem for a lot of fishermen :) As I said, there are ways, and I managed to find mine. Tight lines and good luck on your journey!
